On September 24, at approximately noon, deputies from the Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to the 600 block of Weakley Creek Road following reports of a woman allegedly brandishing what seemed to be a firearm and threatening individuals passing by. Upon their arrival, law enforcement officers attempted to engage with the woman, but she did not comply with their instructions and instead began shouting obscenities.
In an effort to evade the situation, the woman tried to flee on a bicycle. However, deputies intervened, using necessary force to restrain her and subsequently take her into custody. Following her arrest, she was transported to the county jail, where she faces charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. Notably, no weapon was discovered at the scene during the incident.
