Direction unknown
November 18, 2007 at 12:00 pm by Lauren Keating in The BlotterAn officer saw a driver make an illegal turn onto East Paces Ferry Road. “The [car] then pulled into my lane going the wrong way,” the officer wrote. He said the car stopped about 10 feet in front of his patrol car, and the female driver got out and flagged him down. The officer asked: “What’s the matter?” The woman replied, “I’m lost and I need directions. I know what I did was wrong, but I just saw you and needed your help.” The officer wrote, “I asked her where she was going and she started telling me about some story of how she was blamed for something her father did.” The officer asked: “Where are you going?” The woman said Atlantic Station. So the officer gave her directions to Atlantic Station. The officer said the woman started to cry and asked whether he could escort her to Atlantic Station. “No, I can’t give you an escort and that location is out of my zone,” the officer said. The woman allegedly replied, “I am a Clayton County Corrections officer and I have followed directions my whole life and not this time. You can give me a ticket, I don’t care.” She and the officer struggled. “She was laying on her back with her legs up in the air, kicking me,” the officer wrote. So he pepper-sprayed her. She yelled, “It’s a motherfucking game!” She was arrested for simple assault and battery.
