Charleston, WV – A Sissonville man was arrested Tuesday after a SWAT search at his home led to the discovery of multiple firearms and suspected marijuana, according to the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office.
Deputies say Alexander Franklin Rhodes, 27, was taken into custody following an investigation into a reported domestic incident. Detectives had obtained a warrant for felony wanton endangerment involving a firearm, strangulation, and domestic assault before the search.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, the SWAT team executed the warrant on November 18, 2025, at Rhodes’ residence on Rich Fork Road. Authorities reported that the search uncovered several firearms and multiple pounds of suspected marijuana packaged in a way consistent with distribution.
Rhodes was transported to the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office for processing and was later released on a $10,000 cash-only bond. Officials noted that the investigation remains active, and additional charges may be pending.
The Sheriff’s Office reminded the public that anyone arrested is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Residents in the area are encouraged to contact the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office with any information relevant to the case.
