Arrest Report - Tuesday - July 8, 2025
Here is the latest arrest report from the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office for Tuesday, July 8, 2025:
Rain Chances Increasing Throughout The Week
Residents of Northwest Georgia can expect another warm day today, though meteorologists are cautioning about the possibility of isolated strong to marginally severe thunderstorms, primarily bringing a risk of damaging wind gusts. This comes as temperatures are expected to soar into the upper 80s and 90s across much of the region, with rain chances picking up significantly later in the week.According to forecasters, while widespread severe storm activity is not anticipated, specific atmospheric conditions could lead to “advantageous updrafts” that might produce an isolated damaging wind gust. The overall forecast does not call for extensive severe weather.
Today’s Outlook: Today will be sunny with a high near 93 degrees, with heat index values making it feel as hot as 97 degrees. There’s a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms developing after 2 PM. Much of the region can expect highs in the upper 80s to upper 90s, with far northeast Georgia likely remaining cooler, in the upper 70s to 80s. Winds will generally remain calm, becoming west around 5 mph in the afternoon.
Tonight brings a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms before 11 PM, with partly cloudy conditions and a low around 71 degrees. Winds will be west around 5 mph, becoming calm.
Mid-Week Shift: Looking ahead to Wednesday, temperatures are expected to cool slightly, with highs near 91 degrees, though heat index values could again reach 97. The chance of precipitation jumps significantly to 70 percent, with showers and thunderstorms becoming likely after 11 AM. Greater cloud cover from more numerous storms is anticipated to contribute to the minor temperature drop. Calm winds will become southwest around 5 mph in the afternoon.
Wednesday night sees a 60 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly before 8 PM. It will be mostly cloudy with a low around 71 degrees.
End of Week Rain Increase: By Thursday, rain chances peak with an 80 percent likelihood of showers and possibly thunderstorms after 2 PM, and a high near 87 degrees. Winds will remain light, becoming west around 5 mph in the afternoon.
The latter half of the week shows a continued increase in rain chances as moisture filters into the region. Forecasters predict a return to more typical isolated to scattered storm activity by early next week.
Georgia Prepares For Early Fall Armyworm Emergence in 2025: Vigilance Key For Lawns And Fields
Georgia residents, particularly those with turfgrass and hayfields, should prepare for the early arrival of fall armyworms in 2025, with infestations expected to begin emerging from July onwards, especially in southern areas. Experts emphasize that early detection and prompt action will be paramount to mitigating potential damage from these common and destructive pests.
While these voracious caterpillars can sometimes appear as early as April in some years, the typical emergence window for fall armyworms in Georgia spans from late July through the first frost.
Identifying the Threat Property owners should be on the lookout for tell-tale signs of infestation, including ragged-looking leaves and unexplained brown patches appearing in lawns, pastures, or hayfields. The culprits themselves are identifiable by their size, growing up to 1.5 inches long, often exhibiting light to dark stripes along their bodies, and notably, an inverted Y-shape on their heads.
Fall armyworms are notorious for their rapid consumption habits and can quickly decimate turfgrass, pastures, and hayfields, potentially leading to significant economic losses for homeowners and agricultural producers.
Effective Management Strategies
The University of Georgia (UGA) Extension highlights several key strategies for managing fall armyworm populations:
- Proactive Monitoring is Key: The most effective strategy begins with early and consistent monitoring. Regularly inspect your property for signs of egg masses, which are often laid on structures surrounding turfgrass, or for young caterpillars in the grass canopy itself. Small caterpillars are significantly easier to control than larger, more mature ones, making early detection critical.
- Strategic Insecticide Use: If an infestation is confirmed, appropriate insecticides can be applied. It’s crucial to select products based on the size of the caterpillars – smaller ones often require less intensive treatments – and always follow all label instructions meticulously for safety and effectiveness.
- Agricultural Considerations: For hayfield owners, if the crop is nearing its cutting time and armyworms are fully grown, immediate harvesting can be an effective way to manage the infestation and salvage the forage.
- Harnessing Nature: UGA Extension also suggests encouraging natural predators as a sustainable management approach. Ants, ground beetles, and earwigs are natural enemies of fall armyworms, and minimizing broad-spectrum insecticide use can help these beneficial insects thrive and contribute to pest control.
For comprehensive guidance on managing fall armyworms, Georgia residents are encouraged to consult UGA Extension publication C1130, “Armyworms in Sod,” especially for new sod installations. For specific insecticide recommendations tailored to your situation, refer to the Georgia Pest Management Handbook or contact your local county Extension agent, who can provide expert, localized advice.
Walker County Fires Two Over Firetruck Accident
Walker County has fired both the Fleet Director, Ricky Carr, and a newly hired mechanic, John Chance Pendergrass, after a firetruck crash that resulted in the vehicle overturning and catching fire.
The firetruck, valued at $640,000, was involved in an accident on Old Lafayette Road. Pendergrass was driving when he reportedly lost control while approaching railroad tracks and claimed that the brakes failed. However, it was later revealed that he did not have the required commercial driver’s license to operate the firetruck, which led to him being cited by the Georgia State Patrol.
Conflicting statements arose about whether Carr had authorized Pendergrass to take the firetruck for a test drive. Pendergrass insisted that Carr was unaware of the drive. After the crash, he mentioned that the truck’s Anti-lock Braking System warning light had come on, and he believed a low voltage issue might have caused it. Nonetheless, a trooper’s report indicated that tire marks showed the truck had gone off the road before any attempt to brake.
Walker County Chairwoman Angie Teems criticized Carr’s lack of oversight, stating he prioritized convenience over safety and failed to manage his team properly. The firetruck was only covered by liability insurance, raising concerns about potential costs to taxpayers for its replacement or repairs. Teems deemed the terminations necessary due to the serious results of the incident and the disagreements in the accounts of events.
Chattooga County Property Owners: 2025 Assessment Notices Mailed, New Homestead Exemption Window Open
Chattooga County property owners should be on the lookout for their 2025 property assessment notices, which were mailed on Monday, June 30, 2025. With these notices comes a crucial 45-day window for review and appeal, with the deadline set for August 14, 2025.
Adding to the importance of this period, the Chattooga County Assessor’s Office is strongly encouraging all eligible homeowners to apply for the homestead exemption during this appeal period, thanks to recent changes in state law.
A significant update for taxpayers stems from House Bill 92, which has revised multiple provisions of House Bill 581 (2024). This legislation created a statewide floating homestead exemption, fundamentally altering how and when homeowners can apply for this valuable tax relief.
Previously, the traditional deadline for homestead exemption applications was a strict April 1st. Under the new revisions, taxpayers now have an extended opportunity: they may apply for the homestead exemption up to the end of their 45-day window to appeal their notice of assessment. This provides a more flexible and extended period for eligible homeowners to secure their exemption.
However, property owners should also be aware of new stipulations regarding the exemption’s applicability:
- The State/Local homestead exemption is now applicable to only the house and up to five acres of land.
- For properties enrolled in Conservation Use Valuation Assessment (CUVA) or the Forest Land Protection Act (FLPA), the exemption is limited to two acres.
These legislative changes became effective on April 1, 2025, and are applicable to taxable years beginning on or after 2025.
The Chattooga County Board of Assessors emphasizes the importance of reviewing assessment notices promptly and taking advantage of the extended homestead exemption application window. For any questions regarding assessments or the homestead exemption application process, property owners are encouraged to contact the Assessor’s Office directly at 706-857-0737.
Chattooga County Democrats Donate To Back To School Bash
Former '16 and Pregnant' Star Whitney Blake Purvis Arrested in Fatal Overdose Case
A former reality television personality from MTV’s “16 and Pregnant,” Whitney Blake Purvis, 33, of Rome, was arrested this week following allegations that she supplied drugs to a local man who subsequently died from an overdose.
Police reports indicate that Purvis distributed a substance presented as “Tranq” (commonly known as Xylazine) and Fentanyl to 37-year-old John Mark Harris at his home on East Eighth Street in East Rome. Harris was later discovered deceased from an overdose by his father.
This arrest comes mere months after another tragedy struck Purvis’s family. Her 16-year-old son, Weston Owen Gosa, with whom she was pregnant during her appearance on the reality show, also died earlier this year from unknown causes.
Since her time on “16 and Pregnant,” Purvis has faced numerous legal troubles. Her past arrests include charges such as shoplifting and failure to make child-support payments.
Authorities have not yet released further details regarding the investigation or the specific charges Purvis is facing in connection with John Mark Harris’s death.

Georgia Welcomes First Sea Turtle Hatchlings Of The Season On Jekyll Island
The highly anticipated moment has arrived: the very first sea turtle nest of Georgia’s 2025 nesting season has officially hatched, bringing a new wave of tiny lives to the shores of Jekyll Island.
In the early hours of Thursday, July 1st, exactly two months after the eggs were carefully laid, the loggerhead hatchlings began their incredible journey from nest to ocean. The timely emergence, right on schedule with the typical 60-day incubation period, signals a successful start to the state’s vital sea turtle reproductive season.
This initial hatching marks a significant milestone for conservation efforts along the Georgia coast. Sea turtle nests are closely monitored by dedicated teams and volunteers, ensuring the safety and successful incubation of these endangered and threatened species.
For those eager to learn more about these fascinating creatures or perhaps catch a glimpse of the next generation of sea turtles, the Georgia Sea Turtle Center on Jekyll Island offers a unique opportunity. Visitors can explore the center to learn extensively about sea turtle nesting season, the various species found in Georgia waters, and the critical conservation work being done. Additionally, the center provides an opportunity for the public to directly support these efforts by adopting a sea turtle nest.
Gas Prices Decrease In The Peach State
Georgians are continuing to see a welcome decrease in gasoline prices, with the state’s average for regular unleaded falling to $2.90 per gallon. This marks a 4-cent drop compared to just a week ago, offering fresh relief at the pump for motorists.
The current state average, calculated on Monday, stands at $2.90. While this is 4 cents lower than last week’s figures, it is 2 cents higher than the average price a month ago. However, the most significant savings come when comparing to a year ago, with prices currently 42 cents lower than they were at this time last year.
For the average driver, this translates to tangible savings. Filling a standard 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline now costs approximately $43.50. This is nearly $7.00 less than what motorists were paying to fill the same tank just one year ago.
Nationally, the trend of decreasing prices is also evident. The average price for a gallon of regular gasoline across the U.S. has similarly decreased by 4 cents since last Monday, now standing at $3.14. This places Georgia’s average well below the national average, providing an additional benefit for drivers within the state.
It’s important to note that these prices are subject to change overnight as market conditions fluctuate.
The most expensive metro markets in Georgia are Savannah ($2.98), Atlanta ($2.93), and Macon ($2.92).
The least expensive metro markets in Georgia areDalton ($2.79), Rome ($2.78), and Catoosa-Dade-Walker ($2.72).
Area gas price averages: Chattooga ($2.80), Walker ($2.75), Floyd ($2.79), Gordon ($2.79), DeKalb, AL ($2.70), Cherokee, AL ($2.79).
Two Polk County Jail Officers Stabbed By Inmate In Violent Attack
Two corrections officers at the Polk County Jail sustained stab wounds to their heads and arms Saturday after being assaulted by an inmate wielding a homemade weapon, according to a press release issued by Polk County Sheriff Johnny Moats. Both officers were treated at a local hospital and released the same day.
The violent encounter occurred around 12:40 PM on Saturday, July 5th, 2025, as jail staff were collecting lunch trays from observation cells in the booking area. Inmate Dewayne Young reportedly became increasingly agitated after his tray was collected, beginning to flood his cell and make repeated verbal threats toward staff.
Despite multiple verbal commands for compliance, Inmate Young refused to cooperate. Jail staff then deployed two bursts from a PepperBall launcher in an effort to gain his compliance. However, Inmate Young responded by covering his face with his shirt and continued to flood his cell and issue threats.
Due to the ongoing escalation, the G.L.O.V.E. (Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter) device was activated, and a cell entry team was formed. Corporal Smith, Officer Penny, and Officer Dyer entered Young’s cell. Inmate Young had positioned himself between the toilet and the bunk, using his mattress as a shield.
Upon approach, Inmate Young produced a homemade edged weapon and immediately began stabbing at the officers. Corporal Smith, upon identifying the weapon, gave the immediate order to exit the cell. All officers successfully exited, and the cell door was secured to contain the inmate.
As a result of the assault, Officer Penny and Officer Dyer suffered multiple stab wounds to their heads and arms. Medical assistance was rendered on-site, and both officers were transported to a local hospital for treatment. They were treated and released later the same day.
Following the incident, patrol deputies responded to the facility and executed a tactical extraction of Inmate Young from the cell without further incident.
Sheriff Johnny Moats confirmed the details of the incident through the press release. The Polk County Sheriff’s Office is located at 1676 Rockmart Highway, Cedartown, Georgia.

The allure of PFAs truly extends far beyond the tackle box. Visitors will find essential amenities across all PFAs, including concrete boat ramps, picnic tables, well-maintained nature and wildlife observation trails, fish cleaning stations, and convenient restroom facilities.

Georgia Unemployment Claims Up Headed Into July
Initial filings for unemployment benefits in Georgia rose the last week of June, according to data released last Thursday by the U.S. Department of Labor, bucking a national trend that saw a decrease in jobless claims across the United States.
The number of Georgians filing new claims for unemployment benefits, often viewed as a proxy for layoffs, climbed to 4,401 in the week ending June 28. This marks an increase from the 4,108 claims reported in the preceding week.
Conversely, the national picture showed a decline in unemployment applications. U.S. unemployment claims dropped to 233,000 last week, a decrease of 4,000 claims from the 237,000 reported the week prior on a seasonally adjusted basis.
The varied trends suggest differing dynamics within regional labor markets, with Georgia experiencing a slight uptick in initial jobless filings while the broader national data indicates continued easing in layoffs.
Chattooga County Commissioner Seeks SAP Grant For Road Safety
Chattooga County Commissioner Andy Allen is requesting a Safety Action Plan (SAP) Grant from the Georgia Department of Transportation (DOT) to improve road safety in the county. If approved, the grant could provide up to $428,000 in funding, a significant amount for a county with nearly 500 miles of county-maintained roads.
In a letter to the DOT, Commissioner Allen emphasized the urgent need for infrastructure safety in the region. “I am writing to express my strong support for Chattooga County’s application for the Safety Action Plan (SAP) Grant, which is crucial for enhancing roadway safety and reducing the frequency and severity of traffic accidents within our community,” Allen stated.
The SAP Grant would fund several improvements, including guardrails on hazardous road sections to prevent run-off crashes, additional road striping to improve nighttime visibility, extra signage in low-visibility zones, shoulder widening, and elevation corrections. “Investing in these measures will help reduce accidents and create safer travel conditions for everyone using our roads,” Allen concluded.
Commissioner Allen expressed his commitment to improving road safety, regardless of whether the SAP Grant is awarded. “We’re committed to doing everything we can to make our roads safer,” he said. “But this grant could make a big difference in how quickly and thoroughly we can do it.”
Should the grant be funded, Chattooga County plans to stripe several roads, including Nellie Lane, Tasha Lane, Poplar Springs Road, Tinney Road, Stallion Drive, Colt Lane, Perennial Springs Road, Gilkeson Road, Mayo Drive, South Airport Road, North Airport Road, Airport Road, Dogwood Drive, Barnesville Road, Yarbrough Road, Spring Hill Road, Palm Springs Road, Penn Bridge Road, and Sling Alley Road.

Georgia Sweetens Home Ownership Deals With New 'Peach Advantage' Loan Program

This significant initiative aims to provide greater down payment assistance, making the dream of homeownership more attainable for individuals and families across the state.
