Paulding County, GA – The Paulding County Sheriff’s Office and the FBI are once again asking for the public’s help in solving the 2005 murder of Regan Wheeler, a well-known community member who was shot and killed in the driveway of his Dallas home 20 years ago today.
According to investigators, Wheeler was gunned down outside his residence on Etowah Court after possibly interrupting a burglary. The murder occurred on October 13, 2005, and despite years of investigation by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and local detectives, no arrests have been made.
Wheeler, remembered as a prison chaplain, father, husband, and church leader, left behind a wife and two children. Officials believe renewed community awareness could finally bring answers to the long-unsolved case.
Authorities announced a $30,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. The reward is being offered jointly by Crime Stoppers Atlanta and the FBI, with Wheeler’s family also raising additional funds to expand the incentive.
Anyone with information about the murder of Regan Wheeler is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS (8477). Anonymous tips are accepted.
