佐治亚州调查局(GBI)10月15日发布消息说,该局已逮捕并起诉奎特曼市警察局长劳伦斯·麦吉(Lawrence McGee),44岁,奎特曼市居民。麦吉被控一项重罪盗窃罪(Theft by Taking)和一项违反就职誓言罪。他于10月14日被捕,收押在布鲁克斯县监狱。
案件始于2026年2月3日,布鲁克斯县警长办公室请求佐治亚州调查局介入调查针对麦吉的盗窃指控。调查局的初步信息显示,2026年1月,奎特曼市警察局收到一把捐赠手枪,原定用于一次地区交通执法会议的抽奖活动;麦吉将这把手枪留作己用,从未把它列入抽奖。布鲁克斯县大陪审团作出起诉后,法院对麦吉签发了逮捕令。

Georgia Bureau of Investigation Arrests Quitman Police Chief Accused of Keeping Donated Raffle Handgun
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) announced on October 15 that it has arrested and charged Quitman Police Chief Lawrence McGee, 44, of Quitman, Georgia, with one count of felony theft by taking and one count of violation of oath of office. McGee was arrested on October 14 and booked into the Brooks County Jail.
The case began on February 3, 2026, when the Brooks County Sheriff's Office asked the GBI to investigate a theft allegation involving McGee. According to the bureau's preliminary information, the Quitman Police Department received a donated handgun in January 2026 that was intended for use in a raffle for a regional traffic enforcement meeting; McGee instead kept the gun for himself and never included it in the raffle. An arrest warrant was issued after a Brooks County grand jury returned an indictment.
The case file has been turned over to the Southern Circuit District Attorney's Office for prosecution. The GBI asked anyone with information to call its Regional Investigative Office in Thomasville at (229) 225-4090, or to submit anonymous tips through the GBI Tipline at 800-597-TIPS (8477) or the bureau's online channels.
