After doing so, the woman said the man called her back, saying he needed another $3,000, as her grandson’s lawyer didn’t show up for court.

The resident wanted a report of the incident in case he has roof problems in the future from the incident.
February 18 | Missing person
Police responded to a text for help from a cellphone at a Savannah Highway motor lodge, but could not find the sender.

Because of her age, state Social Services officers were called in to take the girl away.
