Manhunt started with
domestic argument
By Ed Bania
HHJ Staff Writer
WARNER ROBINS -
According to a Houston
County sheriffs report,
shots were fired when Perry
police officers were chasing
fugitive James Warren Hair
Thursday night in a wooded
area next to the Moss Oaks
Trailer Park on U.S. 41.
Hair’s address was
reported as 111 Woody
Drive in Perry.
Brandi Boatwright of Lot
22 in the park asked a
neighbor to call 911 saying
that an unwanted person,
Hair, was at her home. The
dispatcher advised sheriffs
deputies that Hair had
eight outstanding criminal
warrants pending and
would fight or flee if con
fronted.
Boatwright told officers
that Hair had come to her
home to restart their rela
tionship and threatened her
with bodily harm if she
called police.
When Perry police officer
Jason Kelly arrived,
Boatwright said Hair ran
out the back door and hid
behind her trailer. Kelly
confronted Hair at gun
point.
Boatwright said she
heard Kelly yelling for Hair
to stop as Hair ran into a
swampy, wooded area.
As another Perry police
officer arrived, Boatwright
said she hear a gunshot.

DES MOINES, lowa (AP)
- Imagine finding $20,000.
Now imagine not keeping it.
That's the story of Tim
Titterington and his son,
Dylan.
It happened after the
Fourth of July weekend as
Titterington, 48, and Dylan,
16, were headed to their
farm outside Milford.
"A semi drove past, and it
looked like confetti flying
around," Titterington said.
It was S2O bills and
receipts from the wallet of
Jody Gardner, 54, of Omaha,
Neb.
Gardner and her sisters
had just closed their dead
father's bank accounts.
Gardner's share totaled
about $20,000 in cashier's
checks and SI,OOO in cash
and coins. She stuffed it all
in her billfold.
On the trip back to the
family home on Lake
Okoboji, Gardner stopped to
buy groceries in Milford.
She drove off with the bill
fold on the roof of the van.

JAMES WARREN HAIR
Houston County Sheriff’s
deputies arrived and set up
a perimeter. A Georgia
State Patrol helicopter was
summoned and conducted a
grid search.
Perry Patrolman
Quridsha Gilliam appre
hended Hair as he was com
ing out of the woods north
of Moss Oaks Creek.
Hair was wanted for bat
tery, cruelty to children,
fleeing or attempting to
elude, driving with a sus
pended license, speeding,
reckless driving, obstruc
tion of an officer and viola
tion of probation. The
report said Hair would also
be charged with terroristic
threats or acts, criminal
trespassing and obstruc
tion.
Hair was being held at
the Houston County
Detention Center Monday.
"I can't believe I did it, but
I did it," she said.
Titterington and his son
said they spent about an
hour tracking down checks,
cash and everything else
that had flown out of
Gardner's billfold.
Back home, Dylan
Titterington found an emer
gency contact number
among the contents. The
Titteringtons reached a
friend of Gardner's, who
gave them directions to the
lake home.
Dylan found Gardner on a
dock behind the house. He
asked her if she’d lost her
billfold.
"I had no idea," she said.
"It was an absolute miracle
for me."
She offered the
Titteringtons a SIOO
reward; they refused.
People Pleasing!
