CHEROKEE COUNTY, Ga. -
A teenager is facing charges for allegedly stealing flags in Cherokee County.
Deputies say over the weekend they discovered three of the flags in the back of a truck parked at Hobgood Park and arrested the 16-year-old driver.
The Towne Lake Optimist Club puts up hundreds of the flags on holidays to raise money for local children's charities. But after Labor Day last week, they discovered someone had swiped at least nine of them.
