GA: Hundreds of documents with personal info found along Jonesboro intersection

Posted on November 18, 2013 by Dissent

Ashley Swann reports:

Some local residents and business owners are on high alert after hundreds of personal documents were found scattered in the middle of a busy Jonesboro intersection.

Channel 2’s Ashley Swann spoke with a man who went to help clean up the mess.

“We’ve got everything from loan applications to balance sheets, to credit card applications, stuff with Social Security numbers, checks,” Seth Gudger told Swann.

Gudger found the documents near the intersection of State Route 54 and Battlecreek Road Friday morning, more than 15 hours after drivers began reporting seeing hundreds of papers scattered about, all of them containing highly sensitive personal information.
