Lord’s Day Worship, September 6

09/03/2026

Our prayers are with the family of Officer Chris Fisher and our sister community of Warm Springs.

Warm Springs, Georgia. It was 11:57 at night, and Officer Chris Fisher had just wrapped up a routine traffic stop.

He was sitting in his patrol car in the parking lot of the Meriwether Country Inn, paperwork likely still fresh from the stop moments before.

A black Chevrolet Silverado pulled up beside him.

Then the shots came.

Fisher was hit multiple times as the truck's driver fired directly into his vehicle. The driver then sped away into the night, leaving behind a scene that would soon draw agents from across the state.

Fisher was pronounced dead at the scene.

He had joined the Warm Springs Police Department only months earlier, in May, and had just been promoted in July. Before that, he spent years serving the Fayette County Sheriff's Office, the kind of officer colleagues remembered as a dedicated friend and brother as much as a badge.

Investigators quickly identified the suspect as 23 year old Jimmie Lee Steverson, a man Fisher himself had arrested only days earlier on drug and weapons charges.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation issued a statewide Blue Alert. Within hours, agencies across three states were searching for a black truck that seemed to have vanished.

They found it the next day, nearly 180 miles away, on I-85 in Anderson County, South Carolina.

Steverson was inside, suffering from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He was rushed to a hospital, where he later died.

Governor Brian Kemp addressed the state directly.

"This is a tragic reminder of the dangers law enforcement face on a daily basis in service to their communities. I ask that all Georgians lift up Fisher's family and his fellow officers in prayer."

Chris Fisher went to work Tuesday night to do his job. He never got the chance to go home.

Meriwether County schools have increased security this week, a small town still absorbing what happened in a quiet motel parking lot after midnight.

End of watch, Officer Fisher.

Please share this so his family and the Warm Springs Police Department know their community, and their state, stands behind them.
