24-year-old Roderick Lawson was involved in an altercation with his grandparents, John and Vivian Bowers, at their Putnam Drive residence on June 18th. When officers arrived, they spoke with the Bowers. Vivian stated that she smelled a weird odor in the house and believed it was Lawson, whom she had told not to smoke inside several times. When Vivian and John confronted Lawson, they started arguing. Lawson told them that this was his house and that he was kicking them out. According to the couple, during the argument, Lawson attacked them and knocked them to the ground. Lawson proceeded to grab Vivian by her legs and drag her out. Once she was outside, Lawson got on top of John and tore his shirt off. When officers spoke with Lawson, his statements aligned with what John and Vivian told police, but he kept saying that “grandparents attacked him.” Roderick Lawson was taken into custody and charged with domestic assault.
