JUNE 18, 2008

AUGUSTA, Ga---Pirate radio station 99.9 has been put out of business. Richmond County investigators shut the station down Wednesday afternoon.

The radio station was being run out of a home on Macon St. When News 12 first did the story last week a house on Walnut St. in Hyde Park was used to broadcast from.

The Federal Communications Commission was brought it to pinpoint where the signal was coming from. After that Richmond County came in to shutdown the station.

Investigators have seized the equipment. No arrests have been made.
