PEACH COUNTY, Ga. — The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) announced the arrest of a Georgia fire chief and emergency management agency director for financial transaction card fraud and theft charges.
GBI officials said the Peach County Sheriff’s Office requested in December for agents to investigate allegations that Peach County Fire Chief/EMA Director Jeff Doles used a county fuel card for personal purchases.
On Wednesday, Dole was arrested and charged with six counts of financial transaction card fraud and six counts of theft by taking.
It is unclear if Dole still holds his position in the department.
GBI officials did not specify the amount Dole spent.
