Murder Suspect On Top 10 Most Wanted List Arrested In DeKalb

DeKalb County authorities say they have arrested a murder suspect who had been on the run for more than two years after a man's death.

ELLENWOOD, GA — A murder suspect on a Top 10 Most Wanted list in metro Atlanta was arrested Thursday at an Ellenwood home, according to the DeKalb County Sheriff's Office.

Authorities say Atlanta resident Bobby Curry had been evading arrest since Oct. 11, 2023. Curry was accused of murder in connection with the August 2023 death of an Atlanta man.
