Chatham County Sheriff Richard Coleman said Monday, Nov. 9, that two people had been arrested and charged with felony obstruction and felony weapons possession involving switches.
Coleman announced the arrests on Facebook early Monday. He said switches can convert a semi-automatic gun into an automatic firearm, and that automatic guns were now off the street. One of the people was wanted in Chatham County.
A video posted to the sheriff’s office Facebook page shows deputies escorting the pair after their arrests. Coleman described the night as “a good night” and said he hoped the arrests could bring relief in other areas where incidents may have taken place. He also urged Chatham County residents to stay safe.
