Cook Co. Sheriff’s Office apprehend fleeing suspect
SPARKS, Ga. – On October 23, 2024, at approximately 8:30 am, Brandon Cooper was spotted by a Cook County Deputy in the area of Red Roberts Landing on Roundtree Bridge Road. He was taken into custody and transported to the Cook County Jail where he awaits charges.
At approximately 9:30 pm, the Cook County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to a report of a suspicious vehicle in the area of EM Rogers Road off of Rountree Bridge Road in Sparks, Georgia.
The complainant stated that a white in color, Nissan Altima had pulled down a drive toward their property initially and then left the scene but returned again a short time later.
The complainant then got in this own vehicle in an attempt to identify who was in the Nissan and saw the vehicle make an abrupt turn while fleeing the scene.
The turn led the vehicle to a dead-end road and then a cotton field where the Nissan became stuck.
The driver then exited the vehicle and fled on foot through the field. Evidence from the vehicle identified the driver as Brandon Cooper, white male, 36 years of age, 5’11”, 150 pounds.
The Sheriff’s Office searched for Cooper using canine tracking dogs and an aerial drone in the area of Union Road and Rountree Bridge. Residents are asked to lock their homes and vehicles and report any suspicious activity to 911 immediately.
