Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) Visits Macon to
Promote Summer Safety on Georgia’s Roadways and Waterways
“Choose Your Ride”,
press conference held
in Macon in May
The Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, the Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division, the Georgia State Patrol
and Bibb County Sheriff’s Office are serious about traffic enforcement this summer on Georgia’s roadways and waterways, and
visited Macon to promote their “Choose Your Ride” campaign.
These agencies are committed to protecting people - sometimes
from themselves. Each of the press conference speakers offered
Jami Gaudet their personal perspective on summer safety.

Jami Gaudet: Sheriff, in speaking with

road and water safety this summer.
Sheriff David Davis: That’s true. Within

Officer of the Month
Deputy John Thompson
On Sunday, April 27, 2014 Monroe County Deputy Jeff Wilson was traveling south on GA 400 and
noticed a white Chevrolet Sonic fail to dim its headlight. Deputy Wilson turned his vehicle
around and followed the car Around milepost 190 in Monroe County he was able to stop the vehicle.
The driver was identified as Michael Galban, the passengers were identified as Nicholas Ramirez and Christine Nieves
- all from Florida. During the traffic stop Deputy Wilson smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from the truck area
and noticed a black container with a gold lock inside the trunk.
Nicholas Ramirez told Deputy Wilson “Anything you find I’ll take the blame for it.” When the container was opened the
deputy observed five or six large clear bags of what he suspected was marijuana, later determined to be approximately
five pounds. During a personal search of Ramirez, a small clear plastic bag containing pills was recovered - later identified as amphetamine pills. Additionally, $4,200 in U.S. currency was recovered.
Deputy Wilson transported all three suspects to the Monroe County Jail, charging them with Felony Possession of
Marijuana with Intent to Distribute. Nicholas Ramirez also was charged with Possession of a Schedule Two Narcotic
and Michael Galban was cited for Failure to Dim Headlights.

Newfound Respect
for Thunderstorms
By Jami Gaudet
Bark stripped from tree
during sudden freak storm
Lighnting bolt strikes and
burns tree during party
While visiting friends recently, the couple recounted their harrowing experience during a sudden, severe thunderstorm that threatened their safety and forever changed their response to even a hint of thunder and lightning when
they are outdoors.
On Memorial Day weekend the couple was hosting a late afternoon pool party and cookout for family and friends
when they heard thunder in the distance. Immediately, the woman called to her 20 year-old son who was swimming
and suggested that he exit the pool. Although he thought his mother overly cautious since the storm appeared to
be far away, he reluctantly heeded her request and stepped out.
Meanwhile, the husband and a family member stood on the pool deck casually speculating on the distance of the
storm from the house when without any hint of the storm’s approach, a bolt of lightning struck a tall, thin tree on the
edge of the woods directly behind the pool area, sending bark flying in all directions with pieces torpedoing into the
ground like daggers.
The lightning uprooted sizeable stones surrounding the tree and sent them tumbling around the yard. Next, the
strands of Christmas lights the couple had strung along the wrought iron pool fence to create a festive atmosphere
exploded in both directions at the site where the strands were adjoined.
My friend recalled there was no time to run into the house upon hearing what sounded like bombs. Her brother, a
veteran who completed tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, instinctively hit the ground and pulled his pregnant
wife along with him. Other guests followed suit as plates and food flew everywhere.
A subsequent series of “explosions’’ added to the group’s fears as the electricity skirted around their home and
property for nearly 10 minutes. Her husband said, “We could hear the various systems being hit by the lightning as
it traveled through and around house, including the cable box and lights, both inside and outside.”
While checking the house immediately after the storm they found a light switchplate in the master bedroom “fried”,
with visible burn marks on the plate and wall. Days later they discovered lights that had been knocked out by the
freak storm and breakers that needed resetting.
Days later, a neighbor three doors up the street from their home, told my friend that while at work on his home
computer when the storm struck he received an electrical shock from the modem. Although the leaves on the tree
that was struck remain green, it’s obvious that at its base, the tree is dead, potentially posing a danger and needing
removal.

Common Sense Storm Advice
There’s no doubt that the weather has become increasingly more violent and unpredictable. Hardly a
week goes by that we’re not inundated with stories of loss and tragedy – lives snuffed out in an instant and
homes and communities ravaged by weather events - from wind, rain and lightning, to snow, tornadoes and
hurricanes.
There are so many ways to protect yourself, your family and property, with a little forethought and preparation. The key is, never let your guard down and prepare for the worst, in case it happens.
The National Weather Service suggests, “keep an eye to the sky,” and whenever possible, listen to your
weather radio or to local weather reports.
Rule of thumb – if you are close enough to the storm to hear thunder, you are close enough to be struck by
lightning. Act quickly. Thunderstorms are dangerous for a variety of reasons – including causing damaging
wind and hail. If a storm is approaching:
1.

Find shelter immediately in a sturdy building or hard top automobile. In a vehicle, make sure the
windows are closed.
Bring pets indoors.
Stay away from windows and doors.
Stay off porches.
Unplug electrical items before the storm arrives.
Avoid contact with electrical equipment and items, including corded telephones.
Stay away from concrete walls and do not lie on concrete floors that can contain wires and conduct
electricity.
Avoid contact with water and plumbing. Avoid performing any activities involving water, including
hand washing, showers, doing laundry or washing dishes.
Stay indoors until the storm is over and the danger has passed.
If you are boating or swimming and see threatening skies, get out of the water as soon as possible.
If you are outdoors, avoid open areas, high ground, tall trees and metal objects.
If you are caught outside during a storm, make yourself as small a target as possible by squatting
and placing your hands over your ears and your head between your legs.

How to “Summerize” Your Dog
Summertime may mean fun in the sun for people – but not for pets. Summer presents several dangers
for our faithful companions, so with pet safety in mind here’s a brief guide to protecting the four-legged

Dogs and cats need to be tested for
diseases and they need immunizations. Check with a veterinarian – and
there are several places locally to get
low cost shots for your pets.
Also, watch out for poisonous snakes
that can injure or kill your pets.
JG: Each summer we hear about pets
being left in vehicles while a family
member “runs into a store” or “does a
quick errand.” How dangerous is that?
Patti Jones: Very, very dangerous. The
temperature in vehicles skyrockets
quickly when it’s hot, quickly endangering pets.
JG: What should we do if we see a dog
or cat in a locked car?
Patti Jones: Write down the make,
model, color and license plate of the
vehicle – and any distinguishing items
(bumper stickers etc.). If the vehicle is
in the parking lot of a store, ask a store
employee to have the owner paged.
You can also call the police.
If a pet seems to be in imminent danger, find a witness to confirm it, get the
dog out of the vehicle and wait for the
police to arrive.

Other Pet Safety Tips from PETA
(People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals)
1. Never leave a dog in a parked car. On a mild day (73º F) the temperature inside a car
can reach 120º in 30 minutes. On a 90-degree day it can reach 160º.
2. Trim the coat of dogs that have thick fur, leaving an inch for protection against insects
and sunburn.
3. Watch areas on a dog that can get sunburned like noses, ears and eyelids.
4. Keep drinking water in an anchored bucket or heavy bowl that won’t tip over.
5. For outside dogs provide water, shade and a kiddie pool.

MIDDLE GEORGIA SEX OFFENDERS
When a person is charged with a sex offense, state law requires law enforcement
to publish the pertinent information in a local newspaper. Likewise, if a previous
sex offender moves into Middle Georgia or changes addresses within our area, law
enforcement is required to publish that information in the newspaper as well.
