On Friday morning, November 1st, Bibb County Sheriff’s Office deputies, SWAT team members, and the Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force apprehended a fugitive at a residence on Cambridge Road in Macon.
The individual, wanted on multiple felony warrants from Macon-Bibb County and North Carolina, attempted to evade capture by barricading himself in the attic. Deputies deployed gas to bring him out of the house.
