‘Streaking’ at nursing home, man hit with wrench noted in Telegraph’s police blotter
It was going on 9 o’clock the night of Feb. 1 when a Bibb County sheriff’s deputy answered a call later described in a report as being “in reference to someone hit with a wrench.” A man on Putnam Street, which runs between Broadway and Houston Avenue in south Macon, said the mother of his children along with her brother had dropped by “to take his car and fight him,” the incident report said. “He stated they all jumped him in the middle of the street.” The man, 44, had been separated from his children’s mother for a couple of months, the report said. According to the mother, 30, the man had visited her mom’s house the day before where she was with “another male,” which made the man “upset and very angry,” the report said. Later at the man’s house, the tussle that attracted the cops was said to involve the 44-year-old man and his ex’s brother, 15, who said the older man “hit him in the top of the head and … in the rib area with the wrench.” The 44-year-old was jailed on charges that included aggravated assault.
Dispatches: A man in a white SUV who allegedly led a Bibb sheriff’s deputy on a chase on Mercer University Drive in mid-January was reportedly weaving through traffic and blowing red lights.

On the evening of Feb. 2, a woman on Log Cabin Drive in west Macon told the cops that while watching the Super Bowl with a “male friend” that the guy’s girlfriend “came over and started arguing with him,” a sheriff’s report said. “She stated (the girlfriend) then knocked over the television.” A fight ensued and in the process the male friend and his girlfriend reportedly broke the kitchen table. . . . An ambulance was dispatched to a nursing home on the northeast side of Eatonton on Feb. 11 to see about an “unstable” woman in her 70s who was said to be “going to other residents’ rooms” and “streaking.”
