Woman banned from
ex-husbands home
A Morningside Drive man
complained to deputy Thomas
Morgan on April 21 that his ex-
wife went to his house, opened
the door and started yelling at
their daughter. He told the deputy
he wanted her barred from the
home due to her erratic behavior.

told if she returned to the home
she would be arrested.
Kia towed for no insurance

insurance by officer Richard
Maddox on Main Street on April

Forte. She was cited and released

Wrecker Service.
Two men in speeding Infiniti
jailed on drug charges
Deputies John Bogdan and
Joshua Warren took two men to
jail on numerous drug and traffic
charges after an interstate stop on
April 23. The deputies made the
stop after two cars passed them
at 3 a.m. on 1-75 N doing around
105 mph.
They pulled over a 2017 Infiniti
Q50 with two occupants on the
should of the Hwy. 18 exit after
they saw the car drift from the
right lane to the far-left lane
several times. The deputies could
immediately smell marijuana
as they approached the vehicle
and asked the driver, an 18-year-
old man from Roswell and his
18-year-old Stone Mountain
passenger were asked to step out.
Bogdan asked them if there was
anything in the car he needed
to know about and both men
replied there wasn’t.
A black backpack was found on
the front passenger floorboard
with two baggies containing a
total of 2.6 ounces of marijuana
inside. There was also a scale with
marijuana residue. Inside the
center console an orange pre
scription bottle was located with
19 oxycodone pills. In a backpack
found on the backseat were two
more ounces of weed.
Comer Towing Service towed
away the Infiniti while the two
men were taken to jail.
The driver was cited for speed
ing, failure to maintain lane,
reckless driving and possession of
drug-related objects. He received
warrants for distributing marijua
na, drugs not in original contain
er and drug possession. The pas
senger was cited for possession of
drug-related objects and received
warrants for distributing mari
juana, drugs not in the original
container and drug possession.
Driver cited and BMW towed
for no insurance
While clearing vehicles from
blocking the road near Kynette
Park, officer Jeffrey Burris ran the
tags on a grey BMW and learned
it had no insurance on April 23.
Burris made a stop on the car at
the corner of Persons Street and
Sharp Street.
The driver said he had insur
ance and showed Burris a picture
on his phone of an insurance
company however no vehicle
information was displayed. The
man was cited for no insurance
and his car was towed.
Woman ties dogs to ex's
mailbox and leaves
A mans ex-wife tied two dogs
she no longer wanted to his mail
box on Weldon Road on April
24. The man told Sgt. Thomas
Haskins that the two dogs have
stayed at his wife’s house since she
took custody of the dogs, around
10 years ago. He said she has been
responsible for the caretaking of
the dogs, including food, shelter,
and water even after their separa
tion and divorce.
Haskins went to the wom
an’s home and found her very
defensive and argumentative.
She at first said she didn’t take
the dogs to her ex’s house, and
they must’ve “gotten out”. When
she was told there were witnesses
who saw her tie the dogs to her
ex-husband’s mailbox, she then
said the dogs were “in his name”.
She added that her 17-year-old
son used to take care of the dogs,
but he no longer lived with her.
Haskins told her that it was
a criminal matter if she simply
abandoned the dogs on someone
else’s property without their per
mission. He said he would return
with her to pick up the dogs, but
she refused. She said she would
rather contact animal control and
tell them the dogs were “running
loose”.
Haskins called the ex-husband
and told him his ex-wife refused
to retrieve the animals. The man
said that he wanted to press
charges. When the sergeant told
him animal control would take
custody of the dogs, he said that
due to the ties the dogs have to
his children he didn’t want to see
them put down and agreed to
keep them.
Two warrants were taken
against the woman for the aban
donment of two dogs.
Jackson man tries to escape
deputies in Suzuki
A 39-year-old Jackson was ar
rested after he ran from Sgt. Chris
Sherrell in a black 2007 Suzuki
hitting 100 mph during a high
speed chase on April 25. Sherrell
spotted the bike going north
on 1-75 near North Lee Street
around 3:35 p.m. and the rider
looked back at Sherrell before he
accelerated and sped away. With
Sherrell close behind, the Suzuki
was cutting between vehicles
trying to escape until deputies
were able to slow traffic around
Johnstonville Road.
Sherrell then maneuvered his
patrol unit in front of the motor
cycle, forced it to the shoulder
and the chase was over. The rider
was taken into custody for fleeing
and multiple traffic citations.
Tracy’s Towing Service removed
the Suzuki from the interstate.
Forsyth woman charged with
battery against a pregnant
woman
Officer C. Taylor was dis
patched to the O’Reilly Auto
Parts Store on April 26 regarding
a fight between two women. The
complainant, who was pregnant,
told Taylor she was in the parking
lot getting her tire fixed on her
2009 Nissan Altima when she
was assaulted by another woman.
She said the woman who hit
her rode by the store a few times
in a grey Honda before she
stopped. After she pulled into
the parking lot, she walked up to
