One person arrested following drug bust in Georgia

GEORGIA — A Young Harris man was arrested Wednesday on multiple drug charges after a traffic stop led to a home search that uncovered methamphetamine, according to the Towns County Sheriff’s Office.

In a social media post Friday, the sheriff’s office said 44-year-old James Harrell Moore III was taken into custody after investigators searched a residence on Woods Grove Road.

The investigation began with a month-long surveillance and targeted patrol in an area with reported drug activity.

Authorities said the surveillance led to a traffic stop on Wednesday, during which information was gathered that provided probable cause for the home search.

Moore faces several charges, including possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute.
