On Wednesday morning April 10, four agencies from northeast Georgia, two from South Carolina and a juvenile prosecutor from the Mountain Judicial Circuit met at the Rabun County Sheriff’s Office to discuss last weekend’s vehicle theft crime spree.

According to a press release from the Rabun County Sheriff’s Office (RCSO), investigators and officers shared case files, evidence and leads on the six vehicle thefts and handful of vehicle burglaries that started the end of last week and continued through late Sunday morning.

In Rabun County, two vehicles were taken early Sunday morning from the Warwoman
community and wrecked off Highlands Highway in Walhalla, Oconee County, South Carolina. From there, the suspects stole more vehicles before being tracked back into Toccoa, Georgia around 7:00 a.m. Sunday morning.

Investigators have conducted neighborhood canvasses, reviewed residential security footage and tracked the suspects’ movement using FLOCK camera systems in both states.

On Monday morning, Rabun County Investigators executed search warrants that will help track the suspects during the time they were involved in the vehicle thefts and burglaries off Warwoman Road.

The Rabun County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with additional information or residential security footage in the Warwoman community to contact the Sheriff’s Office at 706-960-9745.
