A manhunt is underway in north Georgia after a McCaysville police captain was critically injured while responding to a call late Friday night.

According to the McCaysville Police Department, Captain Brantley Worley was shot around 11:10 p.m. on September 12 while on duty. Officials described Worley as a dedicated officer with years of service to the community. He remains in critical condition.

The suspect, identified as 26-year-old Timothy Craig Ramsey, is wanted on charges of aggravated assault with intent to murder a police officer. Authorities say Ramsey, described as 5 feet 11 inches tall, about 185 pounds, with long hair and blue eyes, was last seen on foot near 1st Street in McCaysville. He was reportedly wearing a green shirt, dark pants, and a dark motorcycle helmet at the time of the incident.

Police warned the public that Ramsey is armed and extremely dangerous.

“We strongly urge the public not to approach him,” Chief Michael Otis Earley said during a press conference Saturday. “If you see Timothy Craig Ramsey or have any information about his whereabouts, please dial 911 immediately.”

Multiple agencies, including the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, the Fannin County Sheriff’s Office, and other local, state, and federal partners, are assisting in the search.

“The safety of our community remains our top priority, and we will not rest until Timothy Ramsey is apprehended and justice is served,” Earley said.

Authorities are asking residents to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity as the search continues.

Earley said a tip came in of a person fitting Ramsey’s description just outside the city limits in a wooded area, and Ramsey was taken into custody around 6 p.m. without incident.

“We saw him and apprehended him,” Earley said.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation has taken over the investigation into the shooting.

The chief said Ramsey is being booked into the Fannin County Jail and currently is facing at least one charge of aggravated assault with intent to commit murder against a police officer.

As for Worley, he remains in critical condition at Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga, suffering a broken neck and a brain bleed from the shooting.

“He needs our prayers,” Earley told reporters on Saturday night.

Worley has a wife and a small son. He is also an ordained minister.

Pickens County Fire Rescue said that Worley is also a part-time firefighter and EMT with their department.

GBI usually doesn’t mess around. I’m glad he was caught quickly.

Captain Brantley Worley doing better.

A McCaysville police captain is showing signs of improvement after being shot while responding to a suspicious person call Friday night, and friends are rallying around his family as he continues to recover in the hospital.

That is great news. I pray he makes a full recovery.

Not that any would makes sense, but what was the initial interaction all about? Traffic stop? Or just random?

Suspicious person call at night.

I am glad the police officer is doing better. Too bad the scumbag is still alive.
