Here is the latest arrest report from the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office for Monday, September 28, 2026:


A dry start to the week will give way to summerlike temperatures across Chattooga County before rain and thunderstorms return for the weekend.

When Chattooga County voters go to the polls in November, one of the local questions they will encounter concerns the continuation of a one-percent sales tax that has helped finance school construction, renovations, technology, security and other capital needs for nearly three decades.

Chattooga County’s tax digest has grown by more than $133 million over the past year, but county government is expected to levy nearly $933,000 less in maintenance and operations property taxes for 2026.

The Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office is investigating reports of shots being fired from a vehicle Friday night on Tate Road in the Trion area.
The incident was reported around 9 p.m. Friday, September 25. Sheriff Mark Schrader told WZQZ News that deputies responded to the area and gathered evidence from the scene as part of the investigation.
According to Schrader, there is no indication at this time that anyone was struck by the gunfire, and no victim has been reported.
Investigators have received reports that a vehicle traveled past several residences on Tate Road while shots were being fired.
The Sheriff’s Office is asking residents in the area to check doorbell cameras, home security systems and dashcam footage from around the time of the incident. Investigators are particularly interested in anything that may show a suspicious vehicle or other unusual activity.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Office.
