SPRINGFIELD — What began as a search for a missing Effingham County man Sunday ended with the man found safe, and then criminally charged, Tuesday night. Douglas Lee Morris, 42, of Guyton, was arrested and charged with hindering law enforcement officers after failing to respond to multiple attempts the Effingham County Sheriff's Office made to contact him, according to investigators. "He knew, without a doubt, that we were trying to locate him to verify his well-being," Sheriff Jimmy McDuffie said.
