Gainesville, GA – A Gainesville man featured on Hall County’s “Wanted Wednesday” list was taken into custody this morning after deputies located him near Enota Avenue and Ga. 60/Thompson Bridge Road, according to the Hall County Sheriff’s Office.
According to investigators, the arrest was made by members of the agency’s Warrant Service Unit, who identified the man during a morning operation in the Gainesville area. Deputies allege he was wanted in connection with felony and misdemeanor probation violations.

The Sheriff’s Office confirmed the man is the first individual from its Nov. 19 “Wanted Wednesday” bulletin to be apprehended. Authorities did not report any injuries during the arrest, and no additional suspects are believed to be involved.
Deputies said individuals listed in the weekly bulletin are typically wanted on outstanding warrants or probation violations tied to earlier criminal cases. The department encourages residents to submit tips when they recognize wanted individuals but cautions the public not to approach them directly.
The suspect was transported to the Hall County Jail, where he remains pending further judicial proceedings. Additional details, including potential court dates or bond information, were not immediately released Wednesday afternoon.
