Gas prices rise, but Ga. and S.C. are below the national average

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Prices at the gas pump continue to creep upward as sanctions continue to limit the worldwide oil supply.

However, Georgia and South Carolina both sit below the national average of $3.06 for a gallon of fuel. Columbia, Richmond, and Burke counties have some of the cheapest gas in our Georgia counties – all cheaper than $2.90.

Edgefield and McCormick counties have the cheapest gas on the South Carolina side at $2.75.

Dalton is described by authorities to be around five feet and six inches in height and weighing around 140 pounds.

Dalton may be traveling to the Atlanta area, authorities say.

Last week, we reported when authorities initially reported her disappearance last week.

Dalton called family members on Christmas but refused to tell anyone where she was.

Deputies said she’s been having mental health issues recently but has refused treatment.

The Richmond County Sheriff’s Office is also searching for Azariel Williams, 14, who was reported as a runaway juvenile on Dec. 30.

Her family reached out to us to request the public’s help in locating her.
