Three charged after domestic incident

MOULTRIE — Three people were apprehended for their involvement in an alleged fight Tuesday afternoon.

Shanta Michelle Thompson, 21, of 3109 Veterans Parkway, Apt. B-4, was charged with simple assault (family violence). Robert Milton Thompson, 23, of 223 Smith St. in Berlin, was charged with making terroristic threats and acts and criminal trespassing. Senja Beth Mitchell, 21, of 715 Fourth St. S.W., was charged with obstruction and making terroristic threats and acts.

An officer was called to a house on Eighth Avenue Northwest at 3:52 p.m. Tuesday about a domestic dispute. The officer spoke with Kelvin Clay, who stated he had met Shanta Thompson at the house to pick up their child.

Clay stated he told Shanta the baby smelled and needed a change of clothes, police said, and the two began to argue. He went to leave the house, and she allegedly threw a beer bottle at him but did not hit him as he was leaving.

Clay told the officer he circled around the block before he went back to the house and went to meet with Shanta again. When he went inside the house, she allegedly tried to fight him and threw clothes everywhere. He said he never make contact with Shanta, and he left the house a second time with her inside.

Clay and Shanta went out of the house following the second incident, and she allegedly threw a knife as he walked to his car. Clay left the house when he saw his brother, Robert, driving his mother back to the house.

Clay stated he returned to the house and went inside with his mother, but Robert allegedly came inside without consent and threatened to beat both of them up. When the mother told Robert to get out of the house, he allegedly stated he was going to get a gun.

Robert’s girlfriend, Mitchell, then pulled up to the house, and she allegedly threatened to kill Clay and his mother. Clay told all three to leave the house, and they had left before officers arrived.

Other officers pulled over Mitchell after she drove by the house with the first officer there. During the traffic stop, she allegedly refused to cooperate with officers and would not hang up a cell phone call. She was placed under arrest when she allegedly slapped an officer’s hand as he tried to take the phone from her.

Shanta came back to the house after officers took Mitchell back for positive identification by Clay. After she was identified, all three were placed under arrest and taken to Colquitt County Jail.
