I, Ptl. D. Johnson, responded in normal patrol mode to [600 BLOCK] N Davis St in reference to criminal trespass.
Upon arrival, I made contact with a Black female, later identified as [VICTIM #1], who stated her ex-boyfriend, a Black male, later identified as Edward Jackson, came to her house and threw something at her front room window, causing it to bust. [VICTIM #1] stated the incident occurred at approximately 0329 hours on June 25, 2025. [VICTIM #1] stated in another police report that Jackson busted her side room window, and she had to pay $200.00 to get the windows fixed for her property.

Upon further investigation, we found damage to [VICTIM #1]’s 2010 silver-colored Ford Escape, displaying GA tag [REDACTED]. I asked [VICTIM #1] if her vehicle was always like this, and she replied no and that she just drove her vehicle yesterday, June 24, 2025. I asked [VICTIM #1] what the price was to replace her tires.

[NARRATIVE #3 on June 26, 2025]
While working part-time at [700 BLOCK] W Society Ave, I was approached by [VICTIM #1], who advised that Edward Jackson had broken into her residence. [VICTIM #1] advised that her doorbell camera captured Jackson entering her residence at 0400hrs. [VICTIM #1] stated that the camera never captured Jackson exiting the residence after leaving.
I requested more units to assist due to Jackson being a suspect in several different incidents. Lt. Henry, Lt. Gadt, Ptl. Hatcher and Ptl Morency responded to the residence. Lt. Henry stood by at the rear of the residence to make sure Jackson did not run out the back door. [VICTIM #1] then gave me the key to her door to clear her residence. When I attempted to unlock and open the door, it was blocked by something. I shoved the door several times with my shoulder, which moved whatever was blocking it, and the door opened. Myself, Ptl Hacther, Ptl. Morency and Lt Gadt then drew our duty weapons and entered the living room of the residence. Upon entering the residence, I observed that the living room couch blocked the front door.
We then started clearing the rest of the residence. Upon clearing the main bedroom of the residence, I observed the bedroom closet was full of clothes. While moving the clothes out of the closet, I observed Jackson sitting underneath the clothes. While pointing my duty service weapon at Jackson, I ordered him to show me his hands, which he complied with. Jackson was then placed in handcuffs double locked. Jackson was then searched incident to arrest, yielding negative results. Jackson was then placed in the rear of my patrol vehicle.
Lt. Gadt then notified investigations that we had Jackson in custody. Cpl. Basiden then responded to the scene and conducted her investigations. Cpl. Basiden then advised us to transport Jackson to Dougherty County Jail. Jackson was then placed in the rear of Ptl. Morency patrol vehicle. A booking card was then completed on Jackson and sent to the Dougherty County Jail. Ptl. Morency then transported Jackson to Dougherty County Jail.
