, at approximately 00:00 hours, I, Deputy Watkins, was dispatched to [1500 BLOCK] Sweetwater Drive, Warner Robins, GA, 31088. VICTIM called 911, and reported Latravious Harvey just stabbed him in the hip. I, Deputy Watkins, and other Deputies with the Houston County Sheriff’s Office, responded to the scene code 3 (emergency lights and siren activated).
Upon arrival on scene, we set up perimeter, and attempted at the front door. Initially nobody responded to the door. I, Deputy Watkins, was set up at the rear of the house to make sure nobody would attempt to flee the scene by sneaking out the back of the house. A few moments later, a male subject came out of the rear of the house. The male subject appeared to be attempting to flee the scene. Initially, I assumed the male may have been the offender in the reported stabbing. I had my agency issued Glock model 17 handgun pointed at the male, and I gave him loud verbal commands to get on the ground. The male refused to comply the first few times I told him to get on the ground, but he began to slowly get on the ground. I walked up to the male subject, grabbed him by the back of the head and pulled him all the way down on the ground. I placed my knee on the middle of the back and placed his hands behind his back. The male was handcuffed, assisted back on his feet, and escorted to the backseat of my marked patrol vehicle.
The male subject later identified as Latravios Harvey. Latravios was secured in my patrol vehicle. We then conducted a protective sweep inside the residence while Warner Robins Police Department officers stayed by the patrol vehicles. While sweeping the residence, we found a female identified as [WITNESS ]. [WITNESS ] was detained and escorted outside by Sgt. Daugherty. I then exited the house.
I made with [REDACTED], and [REDACTED] (victim parents). [REDACTED] reported [VICTIM ] called her and said he just got stabbed. [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] said they immediately drove to the scene and continued calling [VICTIM ] by phone approximately ten (10) times, but he never answered. [REDACTED]’s call history on her phone showed the last phone attempt was 27 minutes ago at the time of my interviewing them. [VICTIM ] was transported to Navicent hospital by EMS. [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] left the scene when EMS left.
I began a crime scene log for everybody who entered the scene and stayed with Latravious at my patrol vehicle until CID arrived to the scene. Investigator Darden arrived on scene, and interviewed Latravios after reading him Miranda Warning. Investigator Darden, after his initial interview, left the scene to go apply for a warrant on the residence located at [1500 BLOCK] Sweetwater Drive.
At approximately 02:52 hours, Investigator Darden arrived back on scene with a signed warrant for the residence at [1500 BLOCK] Sweetwater Drive, Warner Robins, GA, 31088. Cpl. Labny (supervisor) instructed me to transport Latravios Harvey to the Houston County Sheriff Office, to meet with Lt. Noler with CID. Upon arrival on scene, I escorted Latravios to the interview room. Lt. Noler interviewed Latravios and afterwards, I transported him to the Houston County Detention Center without incident.
Latravios was charged with Family Violence aggravated assault. I filled out a victim notification form and turned it over to jail staff.
