2A I DAWSON COUNTY NEWS I dawsonnews.com Wednesday, December 5,2018 FROM 1A Domestic deputy responded to the home the morning of Dec. 2 to check on the victim, who stated she got into a verbal argu ment with Anthony, which escalated and turned physical when Anthony grabbed her right arm and “placed her into an ‘arm bar’ and forced her to the ground.” The victim stated that having her arm grabbed and twisted caused pain, bruising and swelling in her forearm. The officer wrote that the victim admitted the pair were having marital issues and that she stated Anthony had been drink ing when the altercation occurred. She also stated that Anthony was apolo getic for his actions and gave her ice and ibuprofen to help with the swelling. The report states that the victim was able to provide pictures of bruis es and injuries to her arm that she claimed she received by her husband in previous altercations. “During the investiga tion it was determined that the female was a vic tim of family violence battery and there was probable cause for the arrest,” the incident report reads. Jay Baker, director of communications for the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office, said Monday that Anthony was arrested on one charge of battery and remains in custody with out bond. Dawson County Sheriff Jeff Johnson said Monday that Anthony, who currently holds the rank of Sergeant, was hired as a detention offi cer on June 8, 2015. “As of (Dec. 2) he has been placed on adminis trative leave pending the results of an internal investigation,” Johnson said.

FROM 1A Elliott follow that up with a win at the Can-Am Duel qualifier putting him in the record books as only the third driver to accomplish the feat along with Dale Earnhardt (1996) and Davey Allison (1990). Once again, victory eluded him on the track, but he continued to build a fan base and his credentials with another 12 top-five finishes, five of which were second place finishes. At the beginning of the 2018 season, Hendricks Motorsports announced that Elliott would be taking the wheel of the No. 9 car famously used by his dad to win 38 races and the 1988 Cup Series Championship. That move marked the first in an incredible series of coincidences that linked father to son throughout the 2018 season. “Those folks at Hendricks are smarter than people give them credit for,” said Gordon Pirkle, president of the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame. “We had so many people that came in here during those years that said they used to be Gordon fans but now pull for Elliott because he is in No. 24.” Elliott continued to fall just short of victory during the first half of the season as he added five more top-five finishes, with another two second place tallies bringing his total of second place finishes to eight in his career, which was the same number his father had prior to his first win. Thirteen races after his eighth runner-up finish, Elliott chalked up the first checkered flag of his career on the road course at Watkins Glen, much like his dad’s first victory at the 1983 Winston Western 500 held at the Riverside International Raceway, also a road course. Considering that the last person to win the award not named Earnhardt or Elliott was Darrell Waldrip in 1990, it is widely antic ipated that Chase Elliott will win the Most Popular Driver Award for many years to come, and he is quick to give recognition to the fans for his accomplishment. “Just a huge thanks to all of you for voting for me for MPD, an honor to keep it in my family after all these years of Dale’s success with the award,” said Elliott via Twitter. “But like I said, votes aside... the fire y’all had for us at track this year was second to none. That means the most, thank you!” Missing man located in Hall ByAllie Dean adean@dawsonnews.com A man who the Dawson County Sheriff’s Office was considering as a missing person on Nov. 27 was found safe in Hall County on Nov. 28, according to Sheriff Jeff Johnson. Investigators with the sheriff’s office posted on Facebook Nov. 27 that they were looking for infor mation about Lloyd Martin “Marty” Stolley, 51, who had last been seen on Nov. 9 at Southern Auto Glass in Dawsonville. Johnson said it was not unusual for Stolley to leave without notifying friends or family. No charges have been made in connection to the case. A Facebook post Nov. 28 thanked the community for the help and prayers regarding the case.
