DeKalb deputies seek ‘armed and dangerous’ suspect in deadly...

DeKalb County deputies announced Wednesday they have nabbed one accused killer but another is still on the run. They would like help locating him.

Jesse Lorenzo Rachell was arrested by the sheriff’s fugitive squad 12 days ago on charges of robbing and murdering Bacaseva Hill in July. He is accused of taking Hill’s backpack and shooting him on Snapfinger Drive.

Authorities are looking for Dwayne Leon Cole on the same charges. They say he was Rachell’s accomplice.

“He remains at-large and is considered to be armed and dangerous,” said Cynthia Williams of the DeKalb Sheriff’s Office.
