Statesboro police are searching for 18-year-old Jermon Ja’reese Dickerson in connection with a shooting that occurred on November 17, 2024, on Bobby Donaldson Avenue. Detectives have issued arrest warrants for Dickerson, charging him with Aggravated Assault and Possession of a Firearm during the Commission of a Crime.
As first reported by Grice Connect, at approximately 8:07 p.m. on the evening of November 17, Bulloch County 911 dispatched both the Statesboro Police Department (SPD) and Bulloch County EMS to the area of Bobby Donaldson Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive after a gunshot detection alert was triggered by Flock’s Raven sensors. In addition, a third-party caller reported a male had been shot at the same location.
