First up, we have Clint Anthony Avant, a 52-year-old resident of Vernon. Avant, residing at 2380 Windsong Ln, has recently landed himself in legal trouble once again thanks to the Chattanooga Police Department.

Antonio Morales Ayala: Driving Without a License
Next, we have Antonio Morales Ayala, a 53-year-old local from Hixson residing at 833 S Valleywood Circle. Antonio was apprehended by the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Department for a few driving-related charges. This time, it seems that keeping track of his driving credentials wasn’t a priority.
- Driving Without a Driver’s License / Expired License
- Financial Responsibility
- No ID
Antonio might just serve as a gentle reminder to everyone out there that keeping your documents in order can save you a world of hassle. Hopefully, he’ll have a chance to sort this out without carrying these worries into the new year!
Mica Devin Beard: Assault on First Responders
Lastly, we have Mica Devin Beard, a youngest among our trio at 28 years old. Mica, who lives at 2907 Calhoun Ave in Chattanooga, had quite a shocking run-in with law enforcement. Arrested by the Chattanooga Police Department, Mica faces some serious charges that nobody wants to see in their record.
- Assault on First Responders (two counts)
- Possession of a Firearm During a Felony
This alarming set of charges isn’t something we come across every day in our neighborhood. Assaulting first responders is a serious offense and is likely to lead to some hefty consequences. One can only hope that such incidents become rarer as the community continues to rally together in support of our first responders who serve and protect us daily.
What Does This All Mean?
As we listen to these stories of our fellow residents, it’s essential to recognize the challenges that individuals can face. The legal system is intricate, and for many, it functions with an understanding of personal histories and struggles.
