The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office in North Carolina has issued a warning to residents of Georgia regarding a dangerous fugitive wanted for felony charges related to a kidnapping and robbery. Jordan Nathaniel Hedden is currently on the run and poses a significant threat to the public.
According to North Carolina officials, Hedden was hitchhiking in their jurisdiction alongside Stephanie Neace. It is alleged that the pair hijacked a vehicle after being picked up by a female resident on November 30. The resident was forced into the back seat while Hedden and Neace took control of the car.
After the carjacking, Hedden continued his criminal spree in Tennessee, where he is suspected of breaking into a home while armed with a gun. Following this incident, Hedden hitchhiked his way to Georgia, where Neace was apprehended by authorities. However, Hedden remains at large.
Law enforcement officials believe that Hedden may currently be hiding within the state of Georgia and caution the public to consider him armed and dangerous. Warrants for his arrest have been issued in both Tennessee and North Carolina.
If anyone encounters Hedden, it is advised to avoid approaching him and instead immediately contact 911 or North Carolina’s Cherokee County Dispatch at 828-835-3144.
Hedden is described as being 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing approximately 130 pounds, with green eyes and brown hair. It is possible that he is currently traveling on foot or by bicycle.
