Oglethorpe Power Company has deferred its plans to construct a 100-megawatt electric generating facility in Baxley.

The “Limping Bandit,“ wanted for 23 robberies, was arrested in South Carolina.

Appling County deputies discovered something big and hairy in the road recently.

The company previously planned to suspend operations at its Baxley and Eatonton mills because of a lack of demand for the lumber it produces for the home-building industry.
