On September 13th, 2024
, around 10:40 PM I was dispatched to a Fight call at Forsyth Park, The incident happened at [1100 BLOCK] Habersham St. My BWC was active while on scene.
When I arrived on scene I made with Ms. [VICTIM ] who drove to the park to be safe and wait for Police to arrive. Ms. [VICTIM ] told me today her boyfriend (Mr. Gregory Anderson) and her got into a physical fight over one of the kids. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated Mr. Anderson and her began if a mutual fight at first then he pinned her to the wall until they separated. Once separated he came from behind her and wrapped his arm around her neck to strangle her. Ms. [VICTIM ] told me she could breathe during this incident. After he grabbed her from behind Ms. [VICTIM ]’s children tried to help pull him off of her. Her children are ages 11, 8 and four. This event happened around 5:45 PM.
After this Mr. Anderson left the house for some time and Ms. [VICTIM ] stayed with her children. They got pizza and watched television until Mr. Anderson arrived back to the house. When he arrived back to the house he kicked the back door to the house in and entered the house. This time he told her she was not allowed to leave the house and again grabbed her from behind placing his arm around her neck, pulling her back into the house. While he was holding her she advised [JUVENILE ], [JUVENILE ] and [JUVENILE ], her children to run to the vehicle and lock the car. While they were in the vehicle she was able to get away from him and run to the vehicle. Mr. Anderson followed her to the vehicle and stood on the driver side so she could not get in the vehicle. Ms. [VICTIM ] told her daughter [JUVENILE ] to unlock the passenger side door only and she climbed in through that door. Once in the driver seat she started the vehicle and Mr. Anderson reached in through the back driver side window to try to open the driver side door. Ms. [VICTIM ] drove away to meet the police.
During this incident he grabbed her phone and broke the screen. Her phone is an Iphone 11 and I was able to see the screen is broken.
Ms. [VICTIM ] told me during the incident Mr. Anderson pulled his firearm at least three times and pointed it at her. Ms. [VICTIM ] stated at this time she could not remember exactly when that happened but she believed he was going to shoot her.
Ms. [VICTIM ] did have video footage inside the that showed some of the altercation. I was able see the first time when Mr Anderson grabbed Ms. [VICTIM ] from behind he had his arm around his neck and pulled her off the floor bending his back to lift her. I was able to see him quickly approach her from behind when the second strangulation occurred but I was not able to see the actual incident.
All three of Ms. [VICTIM ]’s children were present during all the incidents today. None of the three children belong to Mr. Anderson.
Mr. Anderson called and text Ms. [VICTIM ] while I was on scene with her. He left her threatening text messages. He also told her he was not going to back to jail.
I notified Sgt. Duncan of my call and he called Family Violence Detectives to come to the scene. Sgt. Duncan had CRT check the area of the address for Mr. Anderson’s vehicle but they did not locate his vehicle.
While on scene Detective Kasemeyer gave me two broken phones that belonged to the children. He stated that is what stated the fight and Mr. Anderson broke the phones. One is a blue samsung phone and the other is a black Iphone. I logged both phones in as evidence.
