A suspect remains on the lam following an unsuccessful weekend search in the Batesville area prompted by an alleged domestic violence incident, according to the Habersham County Sheriff’s Office. Authorities so far have declined to disclose further information.

Deputies from the Sheriff’s Patrol Division, along with a K-9 unit, responded to the area near GA 356 around 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 19, to search for the individual. Despite the efforts, the suspect was not located.

Habersham County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Rob Moore declined to release the name or a description of the suspect at this time, though he said there is “no danger to the public.”

Now Habersham will update this article as more information is released.
