A wanted Towns County man now is in custody, accused of operating a marijuana grow house. Sheriff Ken Henderson says 55-year-old John Leo Lezinski of Hiawassee was arrested last week and faces a number of charges. U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker visited Towns County for several private events Thursday. During his visit, he participated in an impromptu parade through the Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds before joining singer Lee Greenwood on stage in the Anderson Music Hall. Ninth District U.S. Representative Andrew Clyde says the supply chain interruptions across the nation are backing up because there are not enough port workers to unload container ships, nor are there truck drivers to deliver the goods.
