HARALSON COUNTY, Ga. - The Haralson County Sheriff's Office is desperately searching for a woman who was last seen in a domestic situation with a wanted man who authorities consider dangerous.

The Sheriff's Office said they located a phone belonging to Earl in the woods near the area and have been searching with the Paulding Haralson Drug Task Force and the GBI to see if they can locate Earl.
