[NARRATIVE #1 on December 14, 2024]

On Saturday December 14, 2024, at approximately 17:45 hours Officer Peden was sitting stationary at E. Walnut St./ Hwy 411 waiting for commands to shut down east and west bound traffic on E. Walnut St. for the Christmas Parade.

At approximately 17:55 hours the command was given to stop east and west bound traffic on E. Walnut St. by blocking the roadway with patrol vehicles.

Following this step in the traffic control procedures for the event, Officer Peden’s next directive was to redirect the north bound vehicle traffic on Hwy 411 on foot to W. Walnut St. to begin preparing the parade route for the procession.

After Hwy 411 was secured by law enforcement personnel from multiple agencies Officer Peden as well as all other personnel began foot patrolling their designated areas to ensure crowd control, safety, and roadway safety as the parade procession began.

Officer Peden and other personnel continued foot patrolling their respected areas attempting to maintain roadway clearance, but due to the unusual increase in the number of spectators, roadway clearance became almost unmanageable under the manpower local agencies were able to provide compared to the amount of spectators in attendance.

As the tail of the parade procession passed E. Walnut St. followed by law enforcement patrol vehicles to ensure rearward security from regular vehicle traffic, Officer Peden repositioned his patrol vehicle from being parallel with Hwy 411 on E. Walnut St. to facing west bound in the east bound lane of E. Walnut St. at Hwy 411 to allow traffic to re-enter Hwy 411 to travel north away from the parade.

The next phase in the parade route would be a complete additional pass of the parade procession north bound now returning on 2nd Ave. for spectators on 2nd Ave. The next priority of work for law enforcement after the initial pass on Hwy 411 was to then shift to 2nd Ave to prevent south bound traffic, so that no vehicles are traveling head on into the parade procession. All south bound traffic was to be directed west bound toward Hwy 411.

Due to Officer Peden being accompanied by a Murray County Deputy on E. Walnut St. at 2nd Ave, no movement was required for Officer Peden to reposition his patrol vehicle to 2nd Ave.

At that time Officer Peden was sitting in his patrol vehicle on E. Walnut St. at Hwy 411 awaiting the second pass to take place on N 2nd Ave, while also awaiting command to end tour of duty for this event. No need or requirement for body worn cameras were necessary at this time. Regardless had they been utilized, required traffic vest worn for this event would have fully obstructed camera view.

Minutes later Officer Peden overheard radio traffic that there was non procession vehicle traffic traveling south on N 2nd Ave from the area of E. Cherokee St. and 2nd Ave, head on at the now northbound procession, requesting additional officers to relocate to that location to re-direct southbound traffic west to Hwy 411.

Only several blocks away, and one of the closest units not actively engaged in traffic control for the still ongoing parade procession, Officer Peden responded to the intersection of E. Cherokee St. and N 2nd Ave, parallel parking on the west bound side of the roadway of 2nd Ave and E. Cherokee St.

This took Officer Peden several minutes having to utilize lights and sirens traveling south bound in the median of Hwy 411, to E. Cherokee St. Officer Peden Could not make access to E. Cherokee St. due to grid locked traffic.

Officer Peden utilizing lights and siren, using due regard to surrounding motorist traveled south bound in north bound lanes of Hwy 411 to E Market St. to attempt to make his way to E Cherokee St.

Once Officer Peden turned left to travel east on E Market St. Officer Peden observed grid locked east bound traffic on Market St. blocking all avenues of approach.

Officer Peden attempted to utilize the alley between Hwy 411 and N 2nd Ave on Market St. to travel north to E Cherokee St. but again was met with grid locked traffic in the alley way.

Still on E Market St. Officer Peden was able to maneuver east bound in west bound lanes of Market St. from the Red Rooster Coffee Shop to N 2nd Ave to make access to N 2nd Ave.

Once on N 2nd Ave, Officer Peden was met with south bound traffic heading toward the north bound parade procession that had now made it north of E Market St. on N 2nd Ave, Officer Peden maneuvered his patrol vehicle, still utilizing emergency equipment, through the parade procession to gain access to W. Cherokee St. and N 2nd Ave.

Officer Peden located a patrol vehicle at the intersection of E. Cherokee St. and N 2nd Ave, but could not locate the designated officer for that vehicle to be in the general area of the intersection.

Officer Peden immediately began re-directing southbound traffic westward from 2nd Avenue toward Hwy 411 coming from parking lots and spaces along the roadway between E. Cherokee St. and E. Walnut St. as well as surrounding areas of City Park.

The intersection of E. Walnut and N 2nd Ave all the way to N 2nd Ave and E Market St. was very dark and not illuminated well by street lights this particular night. The weather was overcast as well creating very little to no moonlight illumination in the general area, causing reduced visibility with the naked eye.

Several minutes passed while Officer Peden was directing traffic at E. Cherokee St. and N 2nd Ave before being met by Deputy Weaver with the Murray County Sheriff’s Office. Deputy Weaver, after completing his initial designated assignment, relocated to Officer Peden’s location to assist. Officer Peden stated to Deputy Weaver “Let me know if you hear any radio traffic, my portable is dead.” (Portable vest worn Radio)

Several minutes passed directing traffic as Officer Peden was approached by Deputy Weaver to relay radio traffic. Deputy Weaver advised Officer Peden a bolo (be on the lookout) had just been broadcasted for a rider on horseback in the parade procession who was intoxicated causing some type of issues. Officer Peden asked Deputy Weaver “What is he wearing?” Deputy Weaver responded that he was unsure of any identifiable features for the subject, and just that it was someone on horseback, intoxicated, and creating a disturbance. Officer Peden acknowledged the information Deputy Weaver provided as both went back to directing traffic.

Moments later Captain Michael Parker appeared on a Christmas float in the procession passing by Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver. Officer Peden asked Capt. M. Parker if he had any other information for the lookout given. Capt. M. Parker advised Officer Peden of only the same information that Deputy Weaver was able to provide. As Captain M. Parker started to leave, and the distance for easy communication closed, Officer Peden continued directing south bound traffic.

Minutes later Deputy Weaver stated to the affect of “There they are.” in a tone of disappointment at the scene that was unfolding in front of him. Officer Peden turned around to observe the hardened silhouettes of a large gathering of horses and riders scattered in the roadway in the area of Murray County Feed and Seed and Little Rome, oriented in all directions, and some spinning in circles erratically stopping the parade procession from continuing. The silhouettes of the herd of horses were illuminated by the scene lights of what appeared to be fire trucks behind and amongst the horses. From almost a block away, Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver observed there to be a disturbance taking place.

Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver quickly made their way south on foot to the horses and fire trucks to investigate the situation, and to get the procession moving again due to the initial stoppage of the procession, alone causing unnecessary traffic congestion and hazards to the surrounding public. Once Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver made their way to the scene of the disturbance Officer Peden observed fire personnel and riders engaged in a heated verbal altercation. As Officers were inquiring on what the cause of the issue was, Officer Peden heard someone yelling “It’s Carrell” “It’s Carrell”.

Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver began making their way through the crowd of horses and riders who were being loud, boisterous, and causing the parade to be stopped by blocking the procession, to the fire truck-pickup behind the leading fire truck. (O.C.G.A 16-11-39)

Officer Peden observed a male rider on horseback with his horse nearly perpendicular to the fire pick-up, with head toward the drivers window. Note the horse of this rider appeared to be very calm and controlled. Officer Peden could see there was also a heated verbal altercation between the male rider and the fire personnel in the pick-up truck. (O.C.G.A 16-11-39)

Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver approached the male on horseback and driver of the fire pick-up truck to diffuse the situation. Officer Peden observed upon approach of the male rider later identified as Mr. Gabrion Carrell, to have glazed or glassy eyes, lethargic body movement, becoming loud and boisterous with fire personnel, and to have slurred and incoherent speech. (O.C.G.A 40-6-95)

Fire Personnel began explaining the situation, but Officer Peden diverted his attention to diffusing the altercation. Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver began asking Mr. Carrell if his name was “Carrell” multiple times, in hope to identify who was being stated to be the source of the disruption of the procession and disturbance.

Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver were attempting to communicate with Mr. Carrell in hopes to inquire what the reason for the altercation was, and come up with the quickest solution possible, and to diffuse the situation as quick as possible, in order enough to get the procession moving again, with the chaos and safety concerns of the surrounding traffic environment in mind.

Mr. Carrell stated no he was not when asking his name. Mr. Carrell then moved his horse away from officers toward the sidewalk which were lined with spectators. (O.C.G.A 40-6-95)

Due to Officer Peden’s training, knowledge, and years of experience, it was immediately apparent that Mr. Carrell was intoxicated by the influence of liquor or any drug to a degree in which was rendering him a hazard to the point he should not walk or be upon any roadway. (O.C.G.A 40-6-95)

There were obvious signs of intoxication and/or impairment beyond the legal limit to operate a motor vehicle in the state of Georgia (O.C.G.A 40-6-391(a)(1)) Which also applies to persons driving animals or driving animal drawn vehicles. Reference (O.C.G.A 40-6-4)

Mr. Carrell attempted to put his horse in motion to move north bound after backing away from officers toward spectators on the west side of the roadway. Officer Peden grabbed Mr. Carrell’s right elbow, clinching to his shirt due to him being on horseback and gave him multiple verbal commands to stop.

Multiple commands to stop were given by Officer Peden who was wearing gray BDU pants, a black long sleeve combat style shirt with bright blue and red Chatsworth City Police Department patches on each shoulder, a duty belt containing a yellow taser, glock magazines, baton, and glock 45. Officer Peden was also wearing a black ballistic vest with handcuffs, radio, silver and gold badge, ect.

Officer Peden’s badge was however covered as he was wearing a high visibility traffic vest covering his ballistic vest, gear, and badge. The high visibility traffic vest obstructing Officer Peden’s badge was marked on front and back in large reflective lettering that states “POLICE”.

As officers were giving Mr. Carrell commands to stop, and while he was physically being detained, Mr. Carrell began moving his feet to maneuver his horse. Officer Peden was pulling on Mr. Carrell’s right arm in which he was holding onto the reigns.

Naturally should Officer Peden’s pulling motion had been enough to manipulate the reigns of Mr. Carrell’s horse, the horse would have began turning clockwise or to the right. However Mr. Carrell maneuvered his horse and began kicking his feet around causing his horses rear to turn into Officer Peden. Officer Peden now at the horses rear, became in fear for his safety of getting kicked or stepped on due to Mr. Carrell’s actions.

Mr. Carrell then caused his horse to take off at a gallop by using a spurring motion fleeing from officers. (O.C.G.A 40-6-395) (Reference O.C.G.A 40-6-4)

Mr. Carrell was given commands to stop.

Officer Peden immediately began to run after Mr. Carrell through the crowd of horses back into the street.

With the darkness from poor illumination, mixed with very bright back lighting from the fire trucks, Officer Peden could see people lining the sidewalks on both sides of the street while in pursuit of Mr. Carrell.

After nearly being struck by Mr. Carrell’s horse, the apparent level of intoxication beyond reason to operate a vehicle of any kind, the reckless maneuvering of the horse after causing a disturbance and breaching the peace including stopping a parade, and now fleeing from law enforcement on an animal that could easily harm or kill multiple bystanders, and with the totality of the circumstances in mind, Officer Peden made the decision with Mr. Carrell at full speed toward crowds of spectators and children to utilize the Taser 7 he was equipped with, in an attempt to subdue Mr. Carrell from getting out of reach of officers, and continue to remain and pose a threat and risk the surrounding public’s safety.

The Taser 7 is an Conducted Energy Device used to incapacitate subjects in a less lethal manner utilizing an electric current designed to disrupt voluntary muscle control through neuromuscular incapacitation.

Officer Peden, having years of training with the type of weapon system, understood under a split second decision before Mr. Carrell was out of reach by officers on foot against a rider on horse back, that this was the most reasonable and logical method of force that could have been used, not having any other means of apprehension available at the time.

While in pursuit on foot, Officer Peden drew his Taser 7, lining up the green laser (which is the top most probe) (Every cartridge firing a top and bottom probe simultaneously to complete the electrical circuit.), at Mr. Carrell’s upper back area between his shoulders which is a preferred area of contact in order to maximize the effectiveness of the incapacitation.

Officer Peden discharged one 12 degree cartridge Serial#X4942867F from his Taser 7, serial# (X4001HDKT), striking Mr. Carrell through his vest directly between his shoulder line where the shot placement was intended.

Officer Peden observed the impact from the probe as it struck Mr. Carrell, as well as hearing an audible expression of pain come from Mr. Carrell as he began to present signs of “full lock up” (Neuromuscular incapacitation), ensuring Officer Peden the shot placement and execution of the weapon system was accurate and effective.

The lower probe has not yet been recovered or confirmed whether it struck the saddle, horse, other equipment or Mr. Carrell, but was completing the circuit in some fashion effectively as designed.

Mr. Carrell began to slide to the right of his saddle pulling down on the reigns of his horse causing the horse, at full gallop, to veer to the right almost buckling to the ground due to the amount of force on the reigns.

Officer Peden observed while in pursuit of Mr. Carrell, that he was heading toward another crowd of by standers. Officer Peden immediatley disengaged his taser 7 after firing and the initial muscular lockup.

Mr. Carrell was under his own power, and in physical control of his horse before he crossed the street into spectators. Mr. Carrell continued northbound to the intersection of E. Cherokee and N 2nd Ave, almost completing a right turn east bound on E. Cherokee St. There were a multitude of bystanders on the east side of the street near the intersection of E. Cherokee St.

As Mr. Carrell appeared to be making the turn, contact was made with a 13 year old female spectator at the curb of the intersection. The female was knocked to the ground, but no serious injuries were sustained. Mr. Carrell appeared to be falling off of his saddle at the time he made it to the east most curb of E. Cherokee and N 2nd Avenue. By the time Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver made it to Mr. Carrell as he was falling from his saddle, Deputy Weaver took Mr. Carrell into custody, placing him in handcuffs while Officer Peden provided situational security. Officer Peden observed the immediate overwhelming odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from Mr. Carrell’s person

Mr. Carrell appeared to have a gaze look in his eyes, and appeared to be incoherent and confused, he was slurring his speech and having a hard time completing sentences from the moment Officer Peden made contact with Mr. Carrell to the time he was turned over to booking staff. Mr. Carrell continuously made statements to the affect that he didn’t know what had happened as if he had no recollection of the events that just occurred, this continued at the jail.

Officer Peden observed the female who was struck standing with her parents on the curb crying from panic but appeared to have no injuries. Immediately following taking Mr. Carrell into custody, Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver became surrounded by the riders and horses who were becoming extremely irate and aggressive advancing on officers. Officer Peden observed a slender white male on horseback, that approached directly in front of him along with several others continuing to advance on officers within a few feet as Officer Peden and Deputy Weaver were kneeled down on top of Mr. Carrell.

Disregarding commands to back up, now with Mr. Carrell in officers custody directly responsible for his safety Officer Peden holstered his taser and began to transition and un-holster his glock 45 service pistol. Before Officer Peden removed his service pistol, riders and irate subjects observed Officer Peden’s transition for less lethal to lethal and backed up enough to create a pocket so that officers were able to hold until responding units arrived. Moments later a multitude of responding officers arrived gaining control of the crowd to a more stable level.

Officer Peden sat Mr. Carrell into the seated position and rested his back against Officer Peden legs to prevent him from falling over, and to also have access to any equipment necessary until the scene was safe enough to move. Mr. Carrell began to complain of discomfort of his handcuffs. Officer Peden looked down to observe Mr. Carrell had a broad shoulder width. Officer Peden requested assistance from nearby personnel to help un-cuff Mr. Carrell in order to add a second set of handcuffs as common practice with larger subjects or those of broad shoulder width.

Mr. Carrell was instructed to reposition his hands in a specifically prescribed manner when adding the additional handcuffs to provide more relief than he was experiencing during the initial set of handcuffs he had on. Officer Peden checked for fit and double locked Mr. Carrell’s handcuffs for safety so that they would not tighten during transport to an even more uncomfortable level, as standard procedure with all prisoners being restrained or transported.

Fire personnel on scene quickly made their way to Mr. Carrell and the female who was knocked over. Fire stayed with Officer Peden physically evaluating Mr. Carrell for any injuries that may have been sustained. EMS arrived on scene after responding to an additional medical emergency during the parade non related to this incident. EMS verified with fire on Mr. Carrell’s medical status in case he needed further medical attention. EMS was also simultaneously evaluating the female who was determined to have possible minor injuries, and was transported to be evaluated by Murray ER.

Once the scene was secure enough to move Mr. Carrell Officers relocated to Officer Peden’s patrol vehicle. Officer Peden began reading Mr. Carrell the Georgia Implied Consent Notice for Suspects ages 21 and up for purposes of DUI investigation. (O.C.G.A 40-6-391(a)(1)) (Reference O.C.G.A. 40-6-4) Mr. Carrell appeared to be incoherent to what Officer Peden was reading, but agreed to a blood sample. Mr. Carrell was thoroughly searched and with his consent all of his belongings were given to a family member.

Mr. Carrell was placed in Officer Peden’s patrol car where he was secured by lap and shoulder belt for safety Officer Peden began transporting Mr. Carrell to the Murray County ER for lab work, but diverted while enroute due to receiving command by supervision to charge with Pedestrian Under the Influence. Due to no longer requiring the Toxicology Kit, Officer Peden transported Mr. Carrell to the Murray County Detention Center where he was turned over to Jail staff.

Mr. Carrell then later refused a breath sample to Sgt. Miller with the Chatsworth Police Department. While in booking, Mr. Carrell blacked out from his level of intoxication, going limp while being un-cuffed and then coming back too stating he blacked out.

Officer Peden photographed probe locations from the taser. Mr. Carrell began complaining about his wrist. Officer Peden photographed Mr. Carrell’s wrist at his request.

Mr. Carrell was charged with Disorderly Conduct (O.C.G.A 16-11-39) on Citation #C43240062, Pedestrian Under the Influence (O.C.G.A. 40-6-95) on Citation #C43240063, and Obstructing Law Enforcement Officers (O.C.G.A 16-10-24) on Citation #C4320064.

All photographs taken are attached to this report. Taser probe and cartridge recovered were entered in to evidence. A use of force form was filled out and submitted to supervision. Officer Peden later contacted Murray ER to check the status of the female that was knocked over, and was advised no serious injuries were sustained.

[NARRATIVE #2 on December 14, 2024]

On 12/14/2024 I, Sgt. Jason Miller was working the Christmas parade detail when I heard radio traffic about an intoxicated male subject on a horse causing a disturbance in the parade route. I then heard Chief Etheridge ask for an available unit to go handle the situation. Several minutes later I began hearing radio traffic about a Taser deployment and then that officers had arrested someone.

Units on scene then began requesting EMS to come to the scene (emergency traffic) for the arrestee who had fallen from the horse when he was Tased, and I also heard them requesting EMS for a female at the same location who had been kicked by a horse.

I arrived on the scene of this incident several minutes after everything had happened and as officers on scene were fixing to place the male arrestee in the back of a patrol car. As I walked past the officers and the suspect to go speak with Detective Brandon Stover about a potential child molestation case where the reporting person was in the lobby of the Sheriff’s Office waiting to speak with one our officers to file a report, I turned to look at the male and did not recognize him. What I did notice immediately as I passed him was the very strong odor an alcoholic beverage. As I continued past him, this odor went away.

After speaking with Detective Stover and having Officer Brandon Jackson go the Sheriff’s Office to handle the other call, I began walking back to my patrol car. I was met by a female that I went to school with, [WITNESS #1] (AKA [WITNESS #1]), and she told me that the girl that had gotten “trampled” by the horse was her niece. [WITNESS #1] advised me that she had witnessed the guy on the horse take off after being told by law enforcement officers to stop. She asked what was going to happen and I explained that I was nowhere near the incident when it happened and had no idea exactly what was going to happen.

After returning to the police department, I was asked by Captain Kelly Parker to go to the Murray County jail and read the suspect, Gabrion Carrell (AKA Gabe) his Miranda Warning and ask him if he would agree to blow into the alco-sensor to see if we could some indication of what his level of intoxication was.

I arrived at the jail to speak with Gabe at approximately 20:31. As I opened the door to the cell that he was being held in, I asked him how he was feeling, and he advised me that he was good. I then advised him that I had talked to the officer that had arrested him, and he was not being charged with driving under the influence, but he was being charged with pedestrian under the influence (PUI).

As soon as I said this, out of spontaneous utterance, Gabe began saying… “dude all, all I did was, somebody that my, my horse spooked and”. He never completed this sentence. This was how most of our conversation went as I spoke to him. He would stutter when speaking and wasn’t able to complete sentences or full thoughts. He went on to tell me again that his horse spooked, and he did say something to “the guy” because they had hit the horn. He said he then walked on and then they hit horns and then… “they hit me with those things, and I was, I didn’t do nothing wrong man”. I believe he was talking about the Taser when he referred to “those things”.

After he finished saying this, I went back to explaining to him that he was being charged with PUI. He then told me that he had a beer but never completed his train of thought as he stumbled to figure out what to say. I had told Gabe all of this as a precursor to reading him Miranda so that he would understand why I was reading him his Miranda Rights. Prior to reading his Miranda Rights, I never asked him any questions. Everything he told me up to this point was an utterance from the second I began talking to him.

I explained to him that I was going to read him his Miranda Rights before he continued talking to me so that I could ask him some questions. He then immediately began telling me that he had done nothing wrong, and that his horse had spooked. He told me that he was not able to come back and talk and speak. He tried to elaborate more on this statement but continued to stutter and make incomplete statements as he struggled to figure out what he wanted to say. He continued trying to explain his side of things and I finally stopped him mid-sentence and explained that I needed to read him his Miranda Rights before he kept talking to me. After reading Miranda, Gabe stated… “to be honest, this was above and beyond the rights of, or whatever. I did nothing wrong”. He eventually advised that he understood what I had asked and that he would like to talk to me. He repeatedly told me that he had done nothing wrong.

I was finally able to re-affirm his earlier statement about having drunk one beer, and then I asked if he would blow in the alco-sensor so I could see what his level was. He then began to tell me again that he had done nothing wrong. He went on to say that he had been hanging out and had a beer with “[REDACTED]’s husband” and everything was going fine. He said someone then blew their horn and he went back to tell them to quit blowing the horns because of the horses. He continued to tell me the same story that he told me prior to reading him Miranda. I was able to work back to asking him to blow in the alco-sensor for a second time and didn’t know what I was talking about. I explained what the alco-sensor was, and he told me that no one had done that. I told him I knew that, and that I was asking if he would do it now. He finally told me that he shouldn’t blow because he hadn’t done anything wrong.

I explained that it was his choice and that I was just asking if he would. He told me that he knew what his lawyer would tell him and then said he didn’t think he needed to blow into anything. He then began trying to explain what had happened again, telling me that he hadn’t done anything wrong. I had to explain to him that I wasn’t there so I couldn’t give my opinion about the incident. After this I ended the conversation with Gabe and shut the door, advising that the jail staff would get him processed in approximately six hours due to him being intoxicated. I explained to him that being that he wouldn’t give a breath sample, the jail had no idea what his level of intoxication was, but I could smell the odor of alcohol while talking to him and he had admitted to drinking a beer.

This was the end of our conversation, and it was captured on my body worn camera.

On 12/15/2024 I was asked by Chief Etheridge to do a “Record After the Fact” on Officer Brandon Jackson’s in car camera to see if it captured any of the incident. Jackson’s vehicle was parked at the intersection of N 2nd Avenue and E Cherokee Street which is where this incident took place. I created the recording in his vehicle from 19:15 to 19:40.

At 5:17 into the recording a horse can been seen running into a crowd of people. The intersection where this occurred was not lit by streetlights so the only things that can be seen are from ambient lighting in the area. It is obvious that the horse ran into a small crowd of people at a high rate of speed, but I cannot tell if Gabe was still on the horse at that time. Seconds after the horse ran into the crowd, officers can be seen dealing with someone on the ground in the middle of the crowd, but it is so dark that I couldn’t tell if they were dealing the girl who had been hit by the horse or dealing with Gabe. It wasn’t until officers began walking Gabe to a patrol car that I could tell that the person they had been dealing with the whole time was Gabe. The walk to the patrol car occurred at 15:15 into the video.
