Pike County Man Arrested Following Floyd County Rape Indictment

PRESTONSBURG, Ky. (WMDJ) — A Pike County man has been arrested following a Floyd County grand jury indictment on a rape charge involving a minor.

 

Bryan Cantrell, 30, of Steele, was indicted in August on one count of second-degree rape. Court records show he was taken into custody Monday, several months after the indictment was handed down.

 

According to the indictment, Cantrell is accused of engaging in sexual activity in April 2024 with a minor who was under the age of 14 at the time. The charge is classified as non-forcible under Kentucky law.

 

Second-degree rape is a Class C felony. If convicted, Cantrell could face a prison sentence ranging from five to ten years.

 

Cantrell is currently being held without bond at the Big Sandy Regional Detention Center in Paintsville.
