LAVONIA, Georgia (WYFF) — A now former trailer park manager in Lavonia, Georgia, was arrested three times in a 25-hour span, according to police.
On the night of Monday, March 30, April Taylor called the Lavonia Police Department and reported that she had been shot at while she was in the Beaver Creek Trailer Park after someone allegedly attempted to break into her vehicle.
Officers responded and canvassed the area, but found no evidence to support a shooting or any related claims. Officers said Taylor was the manager of the trailer park.
The next morning, an officer on patrol found Taylor’s vehicle parked sideways in the roadway on Wright Street near the entrance of Beaver Creek Trailer Park. Taylor was getting out of the passenger side of another vehicle and told police that she was attempting to block access to the trailer park.
Following an investigation, police arrested Taylor for DUI (drugs) and other traffic offenses. She was later released from the Hart County Detention Center on bond.
Additionally, investigators secured a warrant for false statements related to the reported shooting. Later the same day, Taylor was found at a business near the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office. She was then taken into custody and transported to the Franklin County Detention Center by the Lavonia Police Department.
We are told she was released on bond later that evening.
Just before midnight, Taylor returned to Beaver Creek Trailer Park, where she allegedly entered another individual’s home without permission. Officers responded, but she had already left the scene. Warrants for criminal trespass and disorderly conduct were secured that night.
On Wednesday morning, officers found Taylor at a gas station in Lavonia, where she was arrested for a third time within 25 hours of her first arrest.
Officers also discovered that Taylor had been formally banned from the Beaver Creek property on March 31 after she was fired from her role as trailer park manager. As a result, an additional criminal trespass warrant was obtained.
The investigation remains ongoing.
