A DeKalb County sheriff’s SWAT team came up empty-handed after surrounding a house for several hours looking for a murder suspect.

Late Tuesday night, SWAT officers surrounded a home on Hollow Tree Drive off Flat Shoals Parkway, looking for 27-year-old Craig Tellis, who is wanted for the Sunday night shooting death of Antory Harris at the Walden Pond apartment complex, Channel 2 Action News reported.
