Upon arrival, deputies found Domingo Ortiz, 51, dead from an apparent stab wound.  After a search of the area, Miguel Hernandez Santos, 68, was arrested in connection with the death of Ortiz.  Santos was transported to the Coffee County jail.  The body of Ortiz will be taken to the GBI Medical Examiner’s Office in Macon for autopsy.

This investigation is active and ongoing while agents and sheriff’s investigators pursue leads.   Anyone who has information is encouraged to contact the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office at (912) 384-4227 or the GBI’s Douglas Regional Office at (912) 389-4103.
