WHITFIELD COUNTY, Ga. — Authorities are searching for a man officials say staged a slip and fall at a Kroger.
Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner John F. King said in May 2022, 55-year-old Ronald Langely Jr. of Dalton told Kroger employees that he slipped on a product that had spilled on the ground.

Officials said Langely then reported the incident to his insurance company and Sedgwick Claims Management Services to seek damages through a personal injury lawsuit.
According to the investigation, store surveillance video caught Langley intentionally lowering himself into the spill.
Langley was not apprehended because officials said he provided them with fake information during initial telephone conversations.
