MORROW, Ga. (AP) — A man dressed as an elf is jailed after police in Georgia say he told a mall Santa that he was carrying dynamite.
Police say Southlake Mall in suburban Atlanta was evacuated but no explosives were found.
Morrow police arrested 45-year-old William C. Caldwell III, who was being held without bond Thursday in the Clayton County jail. He was not part of the mall’s Christmas staff.
Police say Caldwell got in line Wednesday evening to have his picture taken with Santa Claus.
I can attest that phone calls can be annoying, especially at the end of a long day, but getting mad enough to shoot someone might be a tad over the line. Can you say “Busted!”
SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — Georgia police said a misdialed number led two strangers to trade hostile calls and text messages before arranging a meeting where one shot the other. Savannah-Chatham police spokeswoman Veda Lamar Nichols told the Savannah Morning News in a Wednesday story that man, 22, faces an aggravated assault charge. The 22-year-old suspect was jailed after a 24-year-old man was shot in a CVS parking lot around 2:30 a.m. Tuesday.
Nichols said the victim was taken to Memorial University Medical Center in serious condition. She said the two didn’t know each other but began arguing through phone calls and text messages after a misdialed number and arranged to meet in the store’s parking lot.
The suspect was taken to the Chatham County jail. Nichols said his vehicle was damaged during the incident.
