SEGAR NEWS TO SHUT DOWN OCT 1:

Ten years ago I started a social media page called Segar (Southeast Georgia Radio/Reporter). It started off as a small news page, mainly focusing on severe weather related events. Over the years the page has grown into much more than just a weather page! That’s largely in part, because of the loyal fan base that’s that’s supported Segar over the years!

On October 1 this page will no longer exist. I feel that the page has ran its course, and that it’s time to move on to bigger and better opportunities! I’ll still be running “full-steam-ahead” in the area of news gathering, just not under the Segar hat.

I want to sincerely say ‘thank you’ to all the loyal people and fans of the page that have supported me over the last 10 years, and have allowed me to accomplish so much in journalism as a result of your tips, public events, or just your heart-warming stories! Like I said, I’m moving on to bigger & better things in my journalism career. So although it may be a goodbye to Segar, you still see me out and about doing my news thing!

Those who wish to continue staying in touch with me, providing tips or story ideas, can drop me an email at [email protected] and I will reply with my new contact information.

So, not really saying goodbye, just saying goodbye to Segar.

Thank you so much! Dan Scott.

PORT WENTWORTH POLICE WARN RESIDENTS OF PHONE SCAM:

CHATHAM COUNTY, GA– The Port Wentworth Police Department is aware of a scam that a “Lieutenant Duma” who claims that he is with the Port Wentworth Police Department’s Civil Processing Division and is calling citizens from a phone number of 912-642-2581 and is requesting citizens to pay a large sum of money via a Cashier’s Check in court fees for Failure to Appear for missing Superior Court at the Port Wentworth Police Department.

Other citizens may have received similar calls from the same subject stating that they are apart of a fraud or forgery, and they would have to pay the police department to get out of the investigation by withdrawing large sums of money via an ATM and bring it to the police deparmtnet.

The Port Wentworth Police Department does not have a Civil Processing Division and will never require anyone to go to an ATM to withdrawal a large amount of money to bring to the police department.

If anyone has any information regarding these calls or has received similar calls is requested to call their local police department or the Port Wentworth Police Department at 912-964-4360.
