A Boone County man is behind bars this morning for child pornography.

Detectives with the Boone County Sheriff's Department Cyber Crimes Task Force arrested 28-year-old Patrick Drury for the alleged production and possession of child pornography and sexual exploitation of a child.

The arrest comes from an investigation that began late last month.

Authorities found more than 300-photographs, some involving children as young as infants.

Some were sexually graphic photographs of a two year old child believed to have been taken by the suspect while the child was at Drury's residence.

Drury was also in the Boone County Jail on an unrelated charge when he was arrested on the pornography charge.
