An Augusta mother caused a chaotic scene this week at A. Dorothy Hains Elementary, resulting in five felony charges, authorities said.
Tyara Ramsey, 32, was upset that officers would not let her leave the school with her daughter. Sheriff’s deputies were at the school at 6 p.m. Tuesday to investigate a possible sexual assault on the juvenile, and the girl’s stepfather had arrived to pick up the child. The school has an after-school program.
Ramsey showed up and asked why the child could not leave and started yelling at school staff. Officers asked her to calm down, even as Ramsey was pacing the school and banging on the wall. She got more irate, saying she was tired and her other child had a wet diaper.
Deputies told Ramsey they would need to place her in the back of a patrol car unless she could calm down. She snatched away from a deputy and pushed him, authorities said. A deputy fell to the floor during a scuffle, landing on his wrist.
Ramsey – listed as 5’4” tall and 154 pounds – swung her arms and continued fighting, kicking a female officer multiple times, authorities said. Deputies got one handcuff on her when she broke free and swung the arm with the handcuff. The suspect only cooperated when officers threatened to use a taser.
Ramsey was then taken to jail for five counts of felony obstruction of an officer. She spent three nights in at the Charles B. Webster Detention Center before being released on bond Friday.
