On May 23rd, 2026, at approximately 0921 HOURS, I, Ofc. Robertson W166 responded to [1400 BLOCK] Box Cir, Winder, GA 30680. In reference to Alexander Agapi throwing things at his neighbors and claiming he was going to rape his neighbors’ kids. I responded to the call CODE 1 (no lights or sirens) in marked patrol vehicle #405.
When I arrived at the residence, I asked the neighbors where he was, and they said he was sitting on his balcony. I observed Alexander’s banister torn down and lying in the driveway, along with a bunch of debris from the banister and shards of glass all over the driveway and in the road as well. I noticed Alexander sitting on his balcony, yelling at me to come and get him. Alexander told me that I would have to come and get him and that he wanted me to shoot him with my shotgun, which I did not have. Alexander then went back inside his house.
I then began speaking to the neighbors and asked them what was going on and what Alexander had done. [VICTIM #1], DOB: [REDACTED BY AGENCY], began telling me that Alexander had tried to throw a glass liquor bottle at his head, but missed because [VICTIM #1] had dodged it. Remnants of the glass bottle were all in the road and left in the driveway. This is the reason for the aggravated assault and littering charges. As Alexander tried to hit [VICTIM #1] with a glass liquor bottle intentionally to cause harm to him, the glass bottle shattered when it hit the ground, and left pieces of the bottle all in the road and in the driveway. [VICTIM #1] also told me that Alexander had thrown a piece of the banister at his charger, which had hit the charger, causing damage to the driver’s side door next to the window. This was the reason for the criminal trespass charge.
Once Cpl. Morris W145 arrived. He went to the back door to make sure Alexander did not try to leave. Once Sgt. Yarbrough W126 arrived I began to gather witness statements. [VICTIM #1] also stated that Alexander had come outside naked earlier in the day, in front of [VICTIM #1]’s toddlers. [VICTIM #1] said in his witness statement that Alexander also said that he was going to rape [VICTIM #1]’s children. This is the reason for the public indecency and Terroristic threats charges.
[VICTIM #2], DOB: [REDACTED BY AGENCY], stated in her witness statement that Alexander spat on her and told her that he was going to cut her up and cremate her, and that she would be added to his dead girlfriend, whom he had already cremated. This was the reason for the simple battery and the 2nd Terroristic threats charge. All of the 4 witness statements that were written will be attached to this report.
I decided that I had enough evidence and probable cause to take warrants on Alexander. Once the warrants were signed by Judge Durden, Alexander was given verbal commands to come out of the house over the PA system. After multiple unsuccessful attempts of trying to get Alexander to come out with verbal commands, Cpl. Morris W145 fired glass penetrator rounds and pepper ball rounds into Alexander’s window.
After continuing to give loud verbal commands to Alexander for him to come out with his hands up and waiting for the effects of the pepper ball to settle in and make him come out of the house, Barrow County was notified to assist with retrieving Alexander from inside the residence. Sgt. Yarbrough W126 notified Judge Durden that he was en route to her to get a search warrant signed. Before Sgt Yarbrough W126 left, the scene was turned over to Barrow County. Sgt. Yarbrough W126 then returned with a signed search warrant from the judge. Barrow County SWAT made entry through the front door, and Alexander surrendered peacefully. Cpl. Morris and I held the back door of the house until Alexander was taken into custody.
Alexander Agapi was transferred into my custody by Barrow County SWAT. I then searched my backseat for weapons, contraband, and means of escape with a negative result. Alexander was then placed in the back of marked patrol car #405 and buckled in for safety. He was then taken to the hospital to be medically cleared, as he had been exposed to pepper ball. Alexander was cleared from the hospital and transported to the Barrow County Detention Center.
Once I arrived at the Barrow County Detention Center, Alexander Agapi was turned over to Barrow County intake deputies for booking. All of Alexander’s appropriate paperwork was filled out and left with the jail, along with two victim notification forms for [VICTIM #1] and [VICTIM #2].
All units went back into service without any further incident. [VICTIM #1] and [VICTIM #2] were provided with case cards with case numbers on them. I was wearing my department-issued body camera during this investigation. Alexander received 13 warrants

What this means: A judge in the Superior Court of Barrow County signed an order on June 10, 2026, appointing a public defender to represent Alexander Ciprian Agapi in case number 26-PI-325. The order notes that while Agapi does not technically qualify as indigent under the standard definition, the court determined that a public defender should be appointed specifically so that Agapi could be screened for Veterans Court — a specialized court program designed to address the needs of military veterans involved in the criminal justice system. A public defender is a licensed attorney provided at no cost to the defendant when the court determines representation is necessary.

GRAND JURY RETURNS INDICTMENT — 12 COUNTS FILED AGAINST ALEXANDER CIPRIAN AGAPI
What this means: A Barrow County grand jury returned a true bill of indictment against Alexander Ciprian Agapi during the August Term 2026 of the Superior Court of Barrow County, Georgia. The case is numbered 26-CR-346-C. All 12 counts stem from events allegedly occurring on or about May 23, 2026, in Barrow County. An indictment means a grand jury reviewed the evidence presented by prosecutors and found probable cause to formally charge Agapi. It is not a finding of guilt. Agapi is presumed innocent unless and until convicted.
Count 1 — Aggravated Assault (O.C.G.A. 16-5-21): Agapi is accused of making an assault upon a victim using a glass bottle — an object that, when used offensively, is capable of causing serious bodily injury — by allegedly throwing the bottle at the victim’s head.

Count 8 — Disorderly Conduct (O.C.G.A. 16-11-39): Agapi is accused of acting in a violent and tumultuous manner toward two victims, allegedly using profanity and making threats that placed those victims in reasonable fear for their safety, life, limb, and health.

WAIVER OF ARRAIGNMENT FILED BY ALEXANDER CIPRIAN AGAPI
What this means: On August 25, 2026, Alexander Ciprian Agapi filed a waiver of arraignment in Barrow Superior Court. An arraignment is a court hearing where a defendant is formally told of the charges against them and asked to enter a plea. By waiving arraignment, Agapi agreed to skip this hearing and proceed directly to the next stage of the case. This waiver does not constitute a plea or an admission of guilt — it is simply a procedural step that allows the case to move forward without the formal arraignment hearing.

CONSOLIDATED MOTIONS AND DEMANDS FILED BY ALEXANDER CIPRIAN AGAPI
What this means: On August 25, 2026, Alexander Ciprian Agapi filed consolidated motions and demands in Barrow Superior Court. This filing combines multiple legal requests into a single document. Without access to the specific content of these motions, the general purpose is to ask the court to rule on various pretrial matters — which might include requests to suppress evidence, dismiss charges, modify bail conditions, or obtain discovery materials (evidence the prosecution must share with the defense). The court will review these motions and issue rulings on each request.

STATE’S RESPONSE TO DEFENDANT’S ELECTION TO PROCEED UNDER O.C.G.A. 17-16-1
What this means: On August 25, 2026, the prosecution filed a response to Alexander Ciprian Agapi’s election to proceed under O.C.G.A. 17-16-1, a Georgia statute that allows a defendant to waive a jury trial and have the case decided by a judge alone (called a bench trial). By electing to proceed under this statute, Agapi indicated his intention to have a judge decide his case rather than a jury. The state’s response is the prosecution’s formal reply to that election, likely either consenting to or objecting to the defendant’s choice. The court will ultimately decide whether to grant Agapi’s election.
