Man arrested in Banks Co. with 9.4 pounds of meth

HOMER - A Banks County deputy scored big when he arrested a man who they say was transporting over 9 pounds of crystal methamphetamine.

Sheriff Charles Chapman said the suspect is 31-year-old Travis Wyett of Martinsville, Va.

"He was on his way from Atlanta back to Virginia, where he lived, acting in a very suspicious manner with pills out of bottle in his pocket which led to his arrest," said Chapman.

He said Wyatt was spotted and arrested in the parking lot of a Banks County convenience store.
