They also found Smith in possession of suspected cocaine and MDMA, Caldwell stated.

Smith was wanted for a parole violation. He is charged with two counts of aggravated assault, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony crime, terroristic threats and acts and felony receiving of a stolen firearm.

He was being held at Troup County Jail without bond.

LPD, Chick-fil-A help homeless woman

Two LaGrange police officers and the manager of the Chick-fil-A store on LaFayette Parkway went beyond the call of duty to help a homeless woman find food and shelter for the night.

According to the police report, Cpl. Craig Wheeler and Officer Russell Sharman were flagged down by the manager Tuesday night about 8:30 p.m. who asked them if they could help a homeless woman get to a nearby hotel.

The report states Chick-fil-A gave the woman $100 and some food from the store on Lafayette Parkway.

Wheeler and Sharman transported the woman to the hotel, unloaded and carried her bags, and made sure she was able to get a room, according to the police report.

The woman asked for a room for two nights, but did not have enough cash on hand.

According to the report, Wheeler gave her some additional funds for her to be able to stay for the additional night.
