Travis Hamilton of Conyers wanted by Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office

CONYERS, GA—The Rockdale County Sheriff Office is seeking the public’s help in finding Travis Ramon Hamilton, 33, who is wanted in connection with an illegal chop shop operation in Conyers. The Sheriff’s Office issued the Wanted Person alert for Hamilton on May 17.

On April 4, deputies responded to a GPS ping alert of a stolen 2016 Dodge Challenger Hellcat in the area of 3498 Deer Hollow Run. When deputies arrived, they found no such address but observed two vehicles hurriedly leaving 3421 Deer Hollow Run.  When units attempted to make contact at the residence, they found a Black Dodge Charger sitting in the front driveway with the door open. While checking the home’s perimeter, deputies found the stolen Dodge Challenger sitting under the back deck along with another Dodge Charger Hellcat. The Rockdale Criminal Investigation Unit was contacted and executed a search warrant on the residence, which discovered an illegal chop shop operation, the Sheriff’s Office stated in a news release.

Hamilton was identified as the residential homeowner and is named as the person responsible for the illegal operation. Investigators said Hamilton, who is often seen frequenting the metro Atlanta area, is known to drive a Charcoal Gray Ford F-250 with a super lifted suspension. The vehicle has a teal color hydraulic shock system with 30 x 16 teal American force wheels and 42- inch tires. The rear of the vehicle may display a Tire South drive-out tag.

Hamilton has been eluding apprehension and refuses to turn himself into the Rockdale County Sheriff’s Office, officials said.

Anyone with information regarding Hamilton’s current location or any vehicle he is currently driving, should contact local authorities immediately.
