Chattooga County officers responded to a report of disorderly conduct on October 15th.

Officers traveled to the Sequoyah Motel on Highway 27 to assist Redmond with their emergency services. One man was inside a room, beating on a window and could be heard yelling. Redmond personnel informed the officers that the man was drugged and intoxicated and needed help. The man, however, was very irate and screamed and cussed at them, and slammed the door on the personnel. Officers and personnel could see the man continue to drink inside the room, but the door was jammed so they could not enter.

Sheriff Mark Schrader arrived on scene shortly so that they were able to make entry into the room. Sheriff Schrader was able to convince the man to show him his ID. The man was identified as Mr. Gordon Matthew Waller. Mr. Waller tried several times to leave the room and the officials behind.

After a brief struggle, the officers were able to place Mr. Waller under arrest for Disorderly Conduct. Mr. Waller was taken to the Chattooga County Jail.
