Last Sunday, January 12, at 7:04 PM, the Georgia State Patrol responded to a crash on East Armuchee Road at Gore Subligna Road. Upon arrival, troopers launched an investigation into the incident involving a Dodge Charger SXT that had veered off the roadway. According to the preliminary investigation, the Charger was traveling east on East Armuchee Road when the driver, identified as 45-year-old Tomareo Shawn Perry of a South Dick Creek Road address, failed to maintain control of the vehicle. The car traveled off the north shoulder, striking a fence before colliding with a guy wire and breaking a utility pole. Notably, both points of impact occurred outside of the roadway. Perry reported losing control of the vehicle after encountering a patch of ice, which was confirmed by investigators on the scene. The icy conditions contributed to the driver’s inability to maintain lane discipline, leading to the accident. As a result of the investigation, troopers charged Perry with driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol and failure to maintain a single lane.
