On November 7th, a Chattooga County officer was dispatched to Mahan Road after receiving a call about someone stealing items from their home.

When the homeowner came to her house, she saw a woman loading her things into her Jeep. The homeowner made sure to park her car so that the woman could not leave. When the homeowner asked what she was doing, she said that she was just loading stuff up. The homeowner asked why she was taking her stuff, and saw that her daughter's things were in the back. 

The woman began apologizing and saying that she thought that the home was abandoned. The woman was identified as Ms. Elaine Brown once the officer arrived. Ms. Brown was placed into arrested for theft and taken to the Chattooga County Jail.
