Few details regarding the homicide have been released by the sheriff’s office. They report that a call came in on Sunday morning around 9:40 a.m. for a welfare check related to a disturbance at a residence in the 7000 block of Mc Cauley Road near Baldwin Street and south of Highway 26. Once inside the home, deputies found a deceased male, whose name is not being released. Also at the house was 24-year-old Cody Michael Bridges, of Valley Springs, who was detained.
