On the Record
Nicholson women charged with battery
Two Nicholson women were
arrested last week following a
fight at a residence on Rocky
Branch Hollow Road.
Betty Jean Wagener, 48, 41
Rocky Branch Hollow Road,
and Christy Michelle Webb,
31, 87 Rocky Branch Hollow
Road, were charged with one
count each of battery.
According to the incident
report, the fight was a culmi
nation of ongoing problems
between the women. Both
women had injuries to their
faces as a result of the fight.
In a second arrest, two
Colbert men were apprehended
on outstanding felony warrants
after a deputy spotted them
walking along Hunt Road last
week.
Rocky Dean Strickland, 29,
174 8 th Avenue, was charged
with theft by taking and bench
warrant (original charge:
deposit account fraud) and
Roger Dale Strickland, Jr., 37,
same address, was charged with
theft by taking and obstruction
of an officer.
According to the incident
report, Deputy Jeff Strickland
turned around and followed
the men into a driveway where
he ordered them to stop.
Rocky Strickland stopped, but
Roger Strickland reportedly
began running toward a wood
line. K-9 Officer Josh Fowler
and Ace tracked Strickland to
some bushes beside Sexton-
Jennings Road where he was
apprehended.
In another arrest, a
Danielsville man was charged
last week after he struck
the porch of a residence on
Hillwood Drive with his car
and left the scene.
Luis Contreras, 20, 80
Hillwood Circle, was charged
with leaving the scene of an
accident, no insurance, duty
upon striking fixture and
expired registration revalida
tion.
According to the incident
report, a witness to the acci
dent saw what direction the
vehicle, a silver Mazda, left in
and officers found Contreras
getting out of the car in his
yard. Contreras reportedly told
the officers he lost control of
the vehicle and hit a tree, then
hit the residence. The vehi
cle had no insurance and an

DUI, after a deputy reportedly found them riding horses on the road
at night while drinking.

According to the sheriff’s office and the incident report, Deputy
Dennis Harbison found the trio riding their horses on James Adams

asked them to get off their horses and noticed the smell of alcohol
