Man Survives
Two Gunshots
To the Head
By Bryan Geter
Associate Editor
Demetrious Mitchell, 17, of
7483 Highway 100 in Hogansville
was released from the Atlanta
Medical Center on Easter
Sunday, lucky to be alive after
being shot twice in the head and
robbed last Wednesday evening.
Hogansville Assistant Police
Chief Mike Craig said a person
came to the police station around
10:40 p.m. Wednesday and report-
ed Mitchell lying in the grass at
the old Junior Food Mart on
Georgia Highway 29 in
Hogansville.
Police were told Mitchell
looked as if he had been stabbed,
but Craig said after the para-
medics arrived, two gunshot
wounds were found, one to the
front of his head and one to the
back.
Mitchell told police he was
robbed of $50.
"NO ARRESTS have been
made at resstime but a warrant
has been sigrmd;" Craig said.
Craig said the suspect will
be charged with aggravated
assault and armed robbery.
IN OTHER police action, the
Troup County Narcotics Unit
arrested two Hogansville men
last Wednesday and charged
them with possession of cocaine.
Robert Lee Cameron of 128
Ware St. and Danny Rutledge of
404 Pine St. were arrested after
a search warrant was executed
at 128 Ware.
Police reports state the
agents made entry into the resi-
dence and found Cameron in the
living room.
A CLEAR plastic bottle was
discovered and two small blue
plastic bags containing cocaine,
police said.
Police said that during the
search, Rutledge entered the
house with a silver-colored smok-
ing device that had cocaine in it.
All evidence was placed in the
drug vault for shipment to the
crime lab.
The two were carried to the
Troup County jail.
