Watkinsville Police: Woman Reports Harassing Phone Calls From Inmate

On Sunday afternoon, a VFW Drive resident reported that a 31-year-old inmate in the State prison system was telephoning and harassing her.  Watkinsville police contacted correction officials at Hayes State Prison in Trion to halt that activity, police chief Lee O'Dillon reported.
