A traffic stop in Evans, Georgia turned tragic when two deputies of the Columbia County Sheriff's Office were shot, leading to one fatality. The suspect, James Blake Montgomery, was previously charged with felony assault but later exonerated. Although he has been identified, he was not arrested by the time of the report. Local officials, including Augusta Mayor Garnett Johnson and Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr, expressed condolences and support for the victims, highlighting the dangers law enforcement faces.
Heartbroken and praying for the Columbia County Sheriff's Office and our neighbors in Columbia County. Our prayers are with the families of the fallen, the entire Sheriff's Office, and all who are grieving this unimaginable loss.
Anyone willing to put on the uniform every day in a job that's not safe... deserves our unwavering support.
