The Alabama Bureau of Investigation arrested a Lockhart man Wednesday for possession of child pornography.

Agents executed the search warrant shortly before lunch at the Cherokee Avenue home of 53-year-old Michael Larry Holley.

Trooper Kevin Cook said agents with the Internet Crimes Against Children received a cyber tip and obtained a search warrant for Holley’s Cherokee Avenue home in Lockhart.

“When agents executed the search warrant, they got his personal computer and found child pornography,” Cook said.

Holley is currently being held in the Covington County Jail on a $150,000 bond for one count of possession of child pornography.
