Toccoa Man arrested by GBI for November homicide

By Hamilton Keener Anchor / Reporter

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation arrested a Toccoa man on Monday in connection to the Nov. 22 homicide of Angela Baker. 

The GBI said in a press release that Corey Bryant, 36 was charged with malice murder in connection to the 42-year-old woman’s death after agents discovered evidence implicating him for her murder.

Baker and Bryant were known to each other and were previously involved in a relationship.

The Toccoa Police Department requested assistance from the GBI after Baker was found dead by family members in her home on East Franklin Street. 

Authorities located Bryant on Friday shortly after Baker was discovered dead.

Bryant was arrested that same day for a fight which was a separate incident from the homicide.

The GBI said the case is active and ongoing. Those with additional information on the case should contact the GBI Regional Investigative Office in Cleveland at 706-348-4866 or by contacting the GBI Tipline at 1-800-597-TIPS (8477) or online at https://gbi.georgia.gov/submit-tips-online or by downloading the See Something, Send Something mobile app.
