Two Southeast Georgia men are facing aggravated battery charges after an argument at a weekend graduation party.
Elijah Harston King, 19, was charged Tuesday with aggravated battery. Reece Steven Cole, 35, was charged Monday with aggravated battery.
Police said Christopher Bailey Swope was attacked early Sunday by Cole and King while at Cole’s Reidsville residence. Cole allegedly forced Swope to remain at the location and apologize, on video, for an argument that occurred earlier in the night at a graduation party in nearby Cobbtown.
The GBI said it was called in by the Tattnall County Sheriff’s Office to assist with the investigation, and that numerous interviews corroborate Swope’s statement.
