Man charged with false imprisonment of 19-year-old

The Latest Local News from the Rome News

A Rome man was arrested Thursday after a multi-division investigation led to the search of his home and the discovery of drugs, according to Floyd County police.

According to a press release:

Paul Brent Howell, 46, of 312 Canard Road , is charged with false imprisonment; unlawful eavesdropping or surveillance; and battery in connection with a 19-year-old woman.

Howell is also charged with possession of methamphetamine; possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute; possession of a Schedule II controlled substance; theft by receiving; and theft by deception.

Floyd County investigators along with members of the Rome-Floyd Metro Task Force and Floyd County Police patrol division executed a search warrant at Howell’s residence Thursday.

Howell was found with methamphetamine and a controlled substance, and a separate investigation uncovered that Howell had possession of and sold a stolen trailer.

The release stated that the investigation is ongoing.

Lom said late Thursday there is no connection between the investigation and the discovery of human remains off of Everwood Court in the same area last Friday.

She also said there is nothing connecting Howell to the disappearance of Ashley Nycole Jones in February. Jones was last seen on Canard Road walking toward Kingston Highway.
