The GBI arrested a maintenance worker with the University of Georgia Monday on two counts of child molestation.
On Monday, Feb. 22, the GBI Americus Office notified the GBI Athens Office that information had been discovered during a separate investigation that indicated that 26-year-old Obadiah Lindsey of Monroe had been having sexual contact with a juvenile in Athens-Clarke County.
GBI Region 11 then launched an investigation into Lindsey's conduct and obtained warrants for his arrest.
The UGA Police Department stepped in and helped locate and arrest Lindsey without incident and he was booked into the Clarke County Jail.
Lindsey was employed with the grounds and facilities department at the University.
The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information may contact the Georgia Bureau of Investigation at (706) 552-2309 or on the GBI's website.
