Investigators determined that Helton, 33, had an outstanding warrant for Probation Violation out of Habersham County and discovered that he lived on Blue Water Drive.

Helton was found to be a convicted felon along with another man at the house, Danny Lee Helton, 65, Danny Shane Helton’s father. Both were arrested and face multiple drug and firearms charges.
