A Burlington woman is facing a charge following an alleged disturbance at a Mount Pleasant residence earlier this week.
According to court records, 26-year-old Abigail Lyn Palmer of Burlington was arrested shortly after midnight on June 3rd and charged with Disorderly Conduct, a simple misdemeanor.
The complaint filed by the Mount Pleasant Police Department states officers were dispatched to a residence in the 500 block of West Madison Street for a reported disturbance. According to the affidavit, Palmer and two other individuals had come to the residence uninvited and confronted the victim and her husband for what was described as an unknown reason.
Investigators allege the victim reported Palmer yelled at them, refused to leave the property when asked, and threatened to fight the victim multiple times. The affidavit further states Palmer then grabbed items out of the victim’s car and threw them to the ground before leaving the area prior to law enforcement’s arrival.
Palmer was taken into custody and booked into the Henry County Jail. A criminal charge is merely an accusation, and all defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
