Harley Golden, a Georgia parolee, was wanted on multiple extraditable warrants, including aggravated assault, felony possession of a firearm, cruelty to animals, criminal attempt to commit murder, and parole violation from an assault that occurred in Fannin County.
Authorities in Hamilton County, Tenn. considered Golden armed and dangerous due to his alleged affiliations with the Aryan Brotherhood and threats to “shoot it out with law enforcement.”
