ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Dougherty County police are working to find answers after five children were taken from a home, where they said child abuse was happening.
Investigators say they will continue to conduct interviews and find out more background information to try and find a motive.
“We don’t always get those in crimes against children cases, but that’s the goal is to find if there was a motive and what was it,” said Detective Cpl. Calvin Hodge Jr.

ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Scammers are at it again in Dougherty County and it cost one victim almost 10-thousand dollars.
Dougherty County Police (DCP) are looking into a scam they’ve labeled as theft by deception.
According to a DCP shift report from Sunday, someone filed a complaint that they were scammed out of $9,700 by someone posing as an FBI agent.
Unfortunately, scams like this still happen.
“Supposedly had a rental car that was in his name in San Antonio, Texas that had blood and drugs in it. Now what amount of money was gonna do to fix that? I don’t know,” said Sgt. Ted Wertz with the Dougherty County Police Department.
