Coffee County, Georgia
Four individuals have been apprehended for alleged theft after leading law enforcement on a wild chase through multiple counties in Georgia. The incident, which occurred in Coffee County, involved a series of vehicle break-ins in the golf club neighborhood, culminating in a high-speed pursuit that spanned Coffee to Lowndes County and back.
The Crime Spree
On a fateful Sunday morning, the suspects reportedly targeted several vehicles in the golf club neighborhood, ultimately making off with a Silver Ford vehicle. According to reports from Douglas Now, they then ventured into Lowndes County, where they swapped out the license plate on the stolen car for another. The stolen vehicle was spotted by deputies in Lowndes County driving with its lights off in the early hours of Monday.
The Chase
Deputies attempted to conduct a traffic stop, but the suspects evaded capture, sparking a dramatic high-speed pursuit back to Douglas. As the pursuit crossed county lines, the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) joined in the chase, deploying spike strips in a bid to halt the fleeing vehicle. However, the suspects managed to evade the spike strips, leading to a heart-stopping moment near Wendy’s, where a PIT maneuver finally brought the chase to a crashing halt.
The Aftermath
A search of the vehicle uncovered a trove of items belonging to residents in the neighborhood, which were promptly returned to their rightful owners. Among the four individuals arrested were two juveniles and two adults, identified as Alexander Clayton Hernandez, 17, and Deiondrey Sentell Mack, 18, both hailing from Fitzgerald. The case remains under investigation as authorities piece together the events leading up to the dramatic conclusion.
