On September 4, 2023, the Randolph County Sheriff’s Office responded to Oak Hollow Trail, Franklinville, in reference to a fight. Upon investigation, deputies observed Tanya Michelle Long inside a vehicle and she advised she had a ride coming to pick her up and she just wanted to leave the property. Other subjects on scene agreed that was probably best. The deputy offered to give her a ride in order to de-escalate tensions and she agreed.
