Public’s Help Requested in Connection With Shooting in Hart County

Agents with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and Investigators with the Hart County Sheriff’s Office are asking for the public’s help in connection with a multiple shooting incident last weekend.

According to Hart County Sheriff’s Investigator Captain Chris Carroll, it happened last Sunday morning during a Halloween party.

“At about 1:24 a.m. the morning of October 22, Sheriff’s deputies responded to the area of Nancy Hart School Road in reference to an individual being shot. Once deputies arrived at the scene, they found a large gathering of individuals and were able to determine that at least two people had been shot. Deputies then found out that a third individual was shot and had left the scene prior to their arrival on the way to a hospital,” he said Wednesday.

Capt. Carroll tells WLHR News the Sheriff’s Office has contacted the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to assist in the investigation and that the investigation is still ongoing.

Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to contact the Hart County Sheriff’s Office at 706-376-3114.
