The Athens-Clarke County Police Department is investigating a shooting that occurred in the 2400 block of Danielsville Road around 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, according to a Friday press release.
The victim was taken to the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds and is expected to survive, according to the release.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Det. Michael McCauley at 762-400-7061 or michael.mccauley@accgov.com.
Starting Monday, drivers caught speeding by the Athens-Clarke County Police Departmentâs school speed zone cameras will be sent citations, as the warning period for these cameras comes to an end.
The cameras were initially set up in late March, and over 2,400 warnings were issued to the owners of violating vehicles during the 30-day warning period, according to a Friday press release.
Violations are only captured if a vehicle is going at least 11 miles per hour over the speed limit, according to an April 2 press release. The cameras are installed near Barnett Shoals Elementary, J.J. Harris Elementary and Whitehead Elementary.
