Суд по делу об убийстве «Мэри с флагом» в Саванне перенесен на 7 октября

Court hearing delayed for man accused in Savannah hit-and-run death of 'Larry the Flag Man' Byron Reedy appeared in court Wednesday in connection with the hit-and-run crash that killed Larry Haywood, known around Savannah as “Larry the Flag Man.” Haywood, who was killed on April 9, 2025, at the intersection of Skidaway Road and East 49th Street, was a well-known figure in Savannah. Friends said he spent years driving around the city with a giant American flag and music blasting before transitioning to biking through the streets. Linda Wilder-Bryan, Savannah District 3 alderwoman, shared her thoughts on Haywood’s legacy. “Whether you liked what he stood for, everybody was saddened by this loss because you could see him all over the city with that flag. He was patriotic. He was loyal, just like I am to his cause. We didn't always agree, but we had a conversation that sometimes was funny. It was just funny because that is who he was,” Wilder-Bryan said. Reedy, who was arrested in January, expressed discomfort with proceeding with the arraignment and requested a rescheduling through his attorney. After speaking privately with his attorney, the judge agreed to reset the hearing.

That was an icon, you know? And he deserves to have justice,” Wilder-Bryan said. Reedy is scheduled to return to court on Oct. 7. MORE TOP STORIES:
