The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office in North Carolina has issued a warning to residents of Georgia about a fugitive, Jordan Nathaniel Hedden, who is wanted on felony charges involving kidnapping and robbery. Hedden, initially seen hitchhiking in North Carolina with Stephanie Neace, is implicated in a car hijacking and forced abduction of a female resident on November 30.
After the incident in North Carolina, Hedden reportedly traveled to Tennessee where he allegedly committed a home invasion with a firearm before hitchhiking to Georgia. Although Neace has been apprehended by Georgian authorities, Hedden remains at large.
Believed to be hiding somewhere in Georgia, Hedden is considered armed and dangerous. He has outstanding arrest warrants in both Tennessee and North Carolina. Hedden is described as 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing around 130 pounds, with green eyes and brown hair. He may be traveling either on foot or by bicycle.
