Investigators raided a house in a Lexington neighborhood near several schools Thursday, arresting a man on several child pornography charges.
State Police said Andrew Fishback was taken into custody following a 3-month long investigation, in which they found the 22-year-old was engaging in illegal activity.
LEX 18’s camera were rolling just after noon, as Andrew Fishback was escorted out of his house and into a police cruiser.
Investigators from several agencies removed concealed items from the home, which officials said he shared with his grandmother.

Fishback was charged with three counts of possessing child pornography and one count of distributing it. Officials told LEX 18, they could have continued the investigation and brought more charges immediately, but because the home is right next to Lafayette High School and the School for the Creative and Performing Arts, they wanted to arrest Fishback as quickly as they could.
“I think it’s ridiculous because we’ve always had a great neighborhood,” said Arminda Maxwell, who told LEX 18, she’s known Fishback since he was a child. “The school kids park down our street and walk down that way all the time, every morning… and I hope [Fishback] doesn’t live on our street any longer.”
Investigators said they have seized Fishback’s computer and will search it for any more child pornography. State Police said more charges against Fishback are likely.
