STATESBORO, Ga. () – Statesboro detectives are looking for a suspect accused of shooting a man in the leg in what appears to have been a personal dispute, officials said.

57-year-old London Bell, of Statesboro, was already wanted on prior felony warrants and now faces an aggravated assault charge.

Just before 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, officers from the Statesboro Police Department responded to a Flock gunshot detection alert.

They arrived on the scene — a dirt lot on Pine Street — to find a 55-year-old man suffering from a gunshot wound to the upper leg.

Officers rendered aid until Bulloch County EMS arrived on the scene, Statesboro PD said.

The victim was transported to a local hospital and then flown to a Savannah hospital for treatment. He is expected to be OK.

Anyone with information on Bell’s whereabouts or the case is asked to call Sr. Det. Dustin Cross by phone at 912-764-9911 or by submitting an anonymous tip online using the “Submit a Tip” link.
