Update on Tuesday Shooting in Habersham Co.

Media reports have identified the man accused of a fatal shooting in Habersham County on Tuesday.

WSB-TV and other outlets have identified the man taken into custody as 56-year-old Tommy Savage of Cornelia.

The shooting occurred during the early morning hours in the Cornelia area in the area of Garrison Road between Garner Road and Pea Ridge Road.

Following the report of the shooting, the Habersham County Sheriff’s Office began a search in that area that went door to door and also involved K-9 units and a helicopter.

Roads were also closed in that area during the search, which reportedly led to a standoff with the suspect that has now ended with a suspect’s arrest.

According to reports from WSB-TV, one person was killed and a second person was injured in the shooting.

Savage is the father of Celia Savage, who was arrested in 2012 and later pleaded guilty on federal charges of making and possessing pipe bombs.
