It's an emergency!

EMERGENCY! – An East Georgia Regional Medical Center employee was scratched when a woman fought a deputy trying to handcuff her. That’s not exactly part of his job description is it – roughhousing with angry patients under arrest?

FLIMFLAM FRACAS – A Harvey’s ( Fair Road) clerk got confused when a flimflam artist asked for change several times, and left with $57 more than he deserved.

DIDN’T HE KNOW – he would be arrested? All the cop wanted was for a man at the Elk’s Lodge to remove his hands form his pockets, but the man got stubborn and said no. Cops who were there due to complaints about the large party arrested him for obstruction.

CAUGHT ON VIDEO – A silver truck that damaged a gate at The Exchange Apartments was towed, and the registered owner has not returned calls. The video told it all, except – who was driving?

LET IT GO! – If she had, she wouldn’t be hurt. A Foxridge Apartments woman  argued with her baby’s daddy over his smoking in the apartment. He “bumped” her and pushed her in the face, so she grabbed a pole and tried hitting him. He grabbed the pole and dragged her down the breezeway when she refused to let go of it, and she suffered a minor injury.

GOLF GOOF – A couple men at Smithfield Golf Course  argued over golf scores, and one hit the other in the head. A witness said he did not see punches thrown, and the offender admitted pushing the complainant, but said he never hit him. Over golf scores? Man….

WALLY WORLD WONDERS – A man who stole a soft drink and pack of tee shirts fought with loss prevention staff, and ended up with more charges when police added the battery to the shoplifting charge.
    Another man thought he was slick – he put on a pair of shoes, tossed the box and tried to walk out with the shoes and some CDs.
