She asked her ex-boyfriend to take some meat over to her mother’s house. The ex-boyfriend said he would deliver the meat, but only if the 20-year-old would go with him. She refused to accompany him. ?
The ex-boyfriend then asked the 20-year-old if he could have the $10 that she owed him. ?
The 20-year-old asked her current boyfriend, a 39-year-old man who was also at the house, to pay her ex-boyfriend the $10. He complied. ?

An officer responded to a fight call on Edgewood Avenue. Upon arrival, the officer spoke with a 31-year-old British man, who was very excited and talkative about the people he was staying with at an apartment on Jackson Street. ?
The British man said he had a dispute with a heavyset man with long curly hair. The heavyset man was also from the United Kingdom. The British man said that because he was going to leave the apartment and go to Augusta, the heavyset man was going to hurt him and the other people who were living at the apartment also wanted to get him. The British man said the heavyset man had some of his property and wouldn’t return it (including a gold necklace, Timberland boots and Tommy jeans). ?
The British man changed his story a few times. He said he met the heavyset man in the park about three weeks ago, and went to stay with him at the apartment on Jackson Street. The 31-year-old said he did not know that the house was a drug house and that he wasn’t into drugs at all and that these people are into drugs. The British man also said that because he wants to leave, they are all mad at him.
