A suspect is in custody following a shooting incident in Lumpkin County Tuesday afternoon.

Although details are extremely limited, Lumpkin County Sheriff Stacy Jarrard said in a social media post that the shooting was the result of a dispute between neighbors that escalated to the point of violence.

The county Sheriff's Office was alerted to the shooting at 1:20 p.m., and facilitated the victim's transport from the scene to a local medical facility.

An arrest was made following the shooting, and Jarrard said there did not appear to be any danger to those in the vicinity of the shooting.

AccessWDUN has reached out to the Sheriff's Office seeking more details in the case.
