As crews continue to work in the mountains to restore power, a Rabun County man is behind bars charged with shooting at linemen.
On Tuesday, the Rabun County Sheriff’s Office received a call regarding a man threatening and shooting at power crews who were attempting to restore electrical service in the area of Bluebird Lane and Old Highway 441 in Lakemont.
As a result of that search, Bobby Allen Mashburn, a 56-year-old male from Lakemont, was located and taken into custody without further incident.
Following the investigation, Mashburn was arrested and charged with one count of reckless conduct, two counts of terroristic threats, and two counts of aggravated assault.
These individuals are working to restore services and keep our community safe, and actions that place them in danger are taken very seriously.
