*A 25-year-old man was being held in the Hall County Jail with bond Saturday following his early morning arrest on eleven charges, including DUI, endangering the life of a child (2 counts), violating his parole, discharging a firearm near and public highway, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
*Also being held without bond is a 51-year-old man whose facing charges that include exploit/inflict pain/deprive disable/elder/person, forgery in the 4th degree (3 counts), financial transaction card fraud, and probation violation.
(More information on the above is not likely to be available until Monday when local law enforcement offices reopen after the weekend.)
*And then there’s this:
Earlier this week, Hall County sheriff’s deputies were called to a reported hit-and-run at Dawsonville Highway at Lyncliff Drive early Tuesday morning. “The two vehicles collided in the intersection listed above as (one) was trying to turn left onto Dawsonville Highway and (the other) was trying to turn right onto Lyncliff Drive,” a sheriff’s office spokeswoman wrote in an email. (the first driver) gave her name and phone number to (the second), but she left the scene of the accident because she said was on her way to ‘the vet.’ Neither driver was injured. Both vehicles were operable.” At last check the driver who left the scene had still not been located.
