[NARRATIVE #1 on July 04, 2025]
On Friday July 4th, 2025 I, PFC J Taylor R77, was dispatched to the [300 BLOCK] Grady Ave in reference to a heavily congested roadway that was caused by a house party that was taking place at the residence.
Prior to this I was dispatched to the residence earlier in the night in reference to loud music and while there I made contact with Maurice Orr who advised that he was in charge of the party. Maurice was advised that the music that was emitting from his back yard was causing a disturbance with his surrounding neighbors. Maurice was advised to turn down the volume so that the problem would not continue throughout the night. During this time myself and other Officers relocated to the area of Watters St, which is directly behind the residence. During this time we noted that the audio from the speakers could be heard from a block way and the surrounding area. We returned to the residence shortly after and issued a final warning to Maurice to turn the volume down and advised him of the Georgia statute for Disorderly House – 16-11-44 as well as the City Ordnances on Loud music and after hour events. During this time the music was turned down to a somewhat manageable level.
Upon arrival I observed several vehicle parked on both sides of the roadway and a very narrow path between that alloted vehicles to pass through. As I exited my vehicle I observed several party goers walking back and forth throughout the roadway to the point that it was causing a disruption in normal traffic flow. I made contact with other Officers who were in the area due to a recent shooting that had just taken place and the large group of party goers where impeding the perimeter that they were trying to both maintain and investigate. Because of this I went to the residence and made contact with Maurice who met me in the roadway in front of the residence with his bother and sister Adairus and Imauri Orr. Maurice stated that PD had no business at the residence and that the house was off limits to the investigation. During this time the siblings displayed a aggressive demeanor and mannerisms toward PD and used loud/vulgar language. During this time I observed a strong odor coming from the three and several other party goers. Due to the several infractions observed and over all disruption of normal public functions the Maurice was advised to shut the party down and assist in clearing out the crowd.
At this point because of Maurice’s refusal to cooperate, along with previous complaints from neighbors, I advised him to present his driver’s license for the purpose of identifying himself and so that he may be cited for the disturbance. During this time Maurice was advised that PD had a lawful reason to be at the residence. Maurice refused again and he and his siblings retreated to the front yard of the residence. Due to the size of the group Officers regrouped and made contact with supervision who was already on scene.
Myself and other Officers entered onto the property and advised Maurice to present his identification. Maurice then became irate, flashed his ID and cursed loudly at Officers. Because of this Officer decide to place Maurice under arrest. I grabbed Maurice’s right wrist and attempted to place it behind his back. Stg Kasmar R08 grabbed Maurice’s left arm and attempted to assist in the handcuffing process. During this time Maurice began to pull away from PD and straighten his arms. Because of this I handed Maurice’s right arm off to Officer Rains R84 before I repositioning myself behind Maurice’s back to gain control of both arms. Maurice continued to pull away from Officers until we were able to gain control. I then placed Maurice in hand cuffs behind his back and double locked them. Maurice was then searched escorted to a Patrol Unit. I was advised later that a THC pen was located in Maurice’s pocket during his search. The item was collected and had been placed in temporary evidence.
During Maurice’s arrest a large group of party goers began to circle PD. Because of this other departments, ie County, Sheriff’s Office and nearby GSP, were called in assist in dispersing the crowd. On scene PD advised the crowd to leave the area to which majority refused. Both Adairus and Imauri were in the crowd and began to incite chaos in a attempt to protest the arrest of Maurice. Both subject were advised to go back into the residence and both refused. Because of this willful disruption and the danger added to the public both subjects were placed in handcuffs and arrested. Both subjects’ persons were searched and placed in the back of Patrol Units as well.
All three subjects were transported and booked in at the Floyd County Sheriff’s Office. The charges are as follows:
Maurice Orr

[NARRATIVE #2 on July 04, 2025]
On Friday, July 4, 2025, at approximately 2355 hours, I went to Grady Ave. and Pearl St. with PFC Jackson to look for any signs of the shooting that had taken place on Perkins St. When on Grady Ave. There was a party that took place at [300 BLOCK] Grady Ave, and we wanted to ask if [VICTIM #1], the victim, was there. PFC Tanner, PFC Taylor, and OFR Rains went to the party. They began speaking with the attendees, also asking them to lower the music because it was causing a disturbance in the neighborhood.
PFC Tanner requested my presence because the person hosting the party, Maurice Orr (Offender), was refusing to present his ID, believing that being on his property gave him the right to play the music as loud as he wanted. At this time, he was on the sidewalk. Two other males and a female joined him: Imauri Orr (offender), Adairus Orr (Offender), and an unknown male. Maurice said we couldn’t trespass because he was at his home. I told him that he needed to provide an ID, and he said he didn’t have it on him. I told him to provide his information to PFC Tanner. Maurice started to get louder and said, “Ain’t no one on this street complained that from another street.” Another male was pushing him back because he was getting more agitated, jumping around and posturing forward as if he were going to try to fight.
Someone brought him his ID, and he was showing it to PFC Taylor while on the sidewalk. He was yelling at [300 BLOCK] Grady Ave and then told PFC Taylor “to get the fu*k on.” He was escalating his hostility towards the officers by getting closer, becoming louder, and making faster movements with his arms towards PFC Taylor’s face. With him creating a scene and being on a public sidewalk, I went to place him under arrest, and he began to pull away from me. PFC Taylor, OFR Rains, and I tried to place Maurice in handcuffs, but he began tightening his arms and pulling them away from us. He held his right arm up in the air, preventing us from securing him in handcuffs.
While trying to get Maurice in handcuffs, Imauri came over and bumped up against me, showing her ID to PFC White, and he was yelling at her backup. We secured Maurice in handcuffs and escorted him to PFC Whites patrol car. Maurice kept pushing back against us, preventing him from being put in the back seat of the patrol car. He was cussing at us the whole time. We had to have another officer go around to the other side of the patrol car and pull him in so we could shut the door. As we were bringing him down to the patrol car, more people were swarming in, and we called for additional officers to assist, as we were significantly outnumbered.
Imauri was on the side of the road, showing her ID, saying we don’t have to go inside when told to shut the party down and screaming we don’t have to leave. Adairus was next to Imauri and was holding his wrists together, saying arrest me. I was trying to get people to leave and go inside, but the two and the unknown male in orange shorts and a hat kept agitating the situation and causing the crowd to increase. Imauri continued to scream at the officers on public property, exacerbating the situation, and was subsequently placed under arrest for disorderly conduct. Adairus wouldn’t disperse and continued to scream, causing a disturbance in the neighborhood, and he was placed under arrest also.
Floyd County Police, the Georgia State Patrol, and additional Rome PD personnel had already arrived on the scene, helping to disperse the crowd. The three Orr family members were taken to the jail and booked in by PFC Taylor and PFC White.
