On 6-30-25 I responded to [100 BLOCK] Edgemere Ln along with Ofc. Carroll #710 in reference go a Domestic Dispute.

Prior to our arrival, Dispatch advised over the radio that a Male subject was Intoxicated at the above location and the Complainant wanted them to leave, we were also advised that the Male in question had allegedly gone across the road to a Neighbors House.

Upon arrival, Ofc. Carroll was speaking with a Black Female Subject at [100 BLOCK] Edgemere Ln, later identified as the Complainant [VICTIM #1]. I observed two Male Individuals standing in the Driveway of [100 BLOCK] Edgemere Ln and approached them to attempt to ascertain if one of them was the other involved party.

While approaching them I recognized one of the Males as [WITNESS #1], and the other, and older white male, was familiar but I could not remember his name. I approached them and asked who just left [100 BLOCK] Edgemere Ln and [WITNESS #1] pointed at the other male.

I attempted to speak with the older male about what happened across the street, he refused to tell me anything and acted like he did not know anything. All he would tell me when asked what happened was “Angry” and I then asked if they had an argument and he stated “Ya”.

I asked him for his name and he stated “Ray”. I asked him if that was his full legal first name he said it was. He also stated that his last name was “Lockley” and I spelled it out loud to make sure I had it correct and he stated I spelled it correctly as “L O C K L E Y”. He showed signs of heavy alcohol intoxication.

I then went across the street to [100 BLOCK] and spoke with [VICTIM #1]. Upon speaking with her I realized I recognized Ray due to previous Domestic Disputes at this location with [VICTIM #1]. [VICTIM #1] stated that Ray came over for a “visit” and began to threaten her after drinking alcoholic beverages. Stating things such as “I should beat your motherfu*kin a*s” to her. She was insistent that Ray did not live with her, although he had previously.

At that time I heard Ofc. Carroll taking Ray into custody and noticed that he began to resist arrest, I moved across the road and assisted Ofc. Carroll with placing him in handcuffs and he was placed in the rear of Carroll’s Patrol Vehicle. Carroll stated that Ray became Irate with him and approached him in a threatening manner after being told to stop and was taken into custody as a result.

Carroll stated that he believed Ray had defecated in his pants and transported him to the Byron Police Department. I gave [VICTIM #1] a case card and advised her of how to obtain a Protection Order. I returned a short time later to get some new pants for Ray from [VICTIM #1], while on scene [WITNESS #1] advised that Ray had indeed moved back in with [VICTIM #1] approximately 2 weeks prior to this incident.

While at the Byron Police Department it was discovered that “Ray” lied about his name to me, and that his real name was Otis Locklear.

He was charged with Public Intoxication, Disorderly Conduct and Loitering before being transported to the Peach County Jail and turned over to Deputies for holding.
