The search for a killer continues in Oconee County, where the Sheriff’s Office says finding the gunman who shot convenience store clerk Elijah Wood is its highest priority: the 23 year-old Wood was shot and killed early last Friday, gunned down while working at the RaceTrac store on Macon Highway at Hog Mountain Road in Oconee County. Newly-released store surveillance video shows a slim masked suspect dressed entirely in black.
A $10,000 reward is now being offered for information that reads to the arrest of the suspect(s).
