AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – The Richmond County Sheriff’s Office on Friday announced an arrest in connection with a November fatal shooting in Augusta.
De’Narian Cobb, 25, of Waynesboro, is charged in connection with the Nov. 21 shooting death of Chavious Kimmerlin, 50, at Kimmerlin’s home in the 500 block of Highland Avenue.
Cobb was found around 7:30 a.m. Dec. 11 at his home in the 500 block of Eighth Street in Waynesboro after Richmond County and Burke County deputies went there to take him in for questioning in connection with the shooting.
During their interview with him, Richmond County investigators said they found enough probable cause to obtain an arrest warrant.
Cobb is currently at the Burke County Detention Center for charges that occurred in that jurisdiction.
Once the judicial process is completed in Burke County, Cobb will be extradited to Richmond County and booked into the Charles B. Webster Detention Center on the charges of murder, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, according to Richmond County deputies.
Kimmerlin’s slaying in broad daylight shocked those who lived and worked in the neighborhood.
A woman who works at the Wing Express across the street said the victim had just been there the night before getting food.
“It’s scary out here,” she said. “I just come into work every day and pray I make it back to my car.”
