MERIWETHER COUNTY, Ga. — Meriwether County Fire Rescue is asking the public for help to find out who hit a communication tower.
Officials said a driver in a tractor-trailer turned around in their Station 1 parking lot Thursday around 7:30 p.m. and struck the central repeater tower. The incident left the tower bent and in shambles, causing the agency to lose at least a fifth of its communication system, according to a social media post.
MCFR said they've spoken with a witness who says they saw an orange truck crash into the tower.
If any one has a security camera such as a door bell, they are asked to call the agency at the non emergency line at (706) 672-3809.
