WHITWELL, Tenn. (AP) — Authorities are searching near Chattanooga for a man wanted for a convenience store hold-up, saying they've placed the suspect on the top 10 most wanted list of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. Area news outlets report the search for 42-year-old Dewayne Lee Halfacre continued for a third day Wednesday near Whitwell, about 25 miles (35 kilometers) northwest of Chattanooga. Authorities say Halfacre eluded capture earlier this week though a fellow suspect in Friday's robbery in Rutherford County, 51-year-old Timothy Howell, was arrested.
