When police were called, Evelyn was asked to leave and staff locked the door to the Waffle House behind her.

She refused, according to a police report.
A police report says WGXA that Evelyn would not provide a copy of her driver’s license to them and when asked to step out of the vehicle, she told officers “do not touch me.”
An officer grabbed her arm after she refused to provide the license to them following multiple requests and arrested her but she continued to refuse following their orders.
When running the plate of the vehicle she was driving, the police report says the tag belonged to another vehicle and did not match.
Officers searched Evelyn’s car and purse, finding a handgun and marijuana. Evelyn then threatened to kill the police and kicked the patrol car door into an officer, knocking them back, then was taken into custody.
Evelyn was taken to the Houston County Detention Center facing charges of:
- Attempt to misrepresent a vehicle tag
- Driving with an expired or no license plate or decal
- Terroristic threats
- Driving with no proof of insurance
- Simple battery on a police officer
- Marijuana possession (less than 1 oz)
- Driving with a suspended or revoked license
- Willful obstruction of law enforcement
Court records show Evelyn was awarded a $15,703 bond but it was unclear if she had been released from jail.
