Preliminary Information: On 1/17/23, around 9:34pm, officers responded to 11700 Spine Rd on concourse D located at Hartsfield Jackson International Airport in reference to a suspicious female attempting to open secured doors inside the concourse. Upon arrival, officers met with airport security who requested police. Officers were advised a female, identified as Jennifer Holder, was in gate D-9 discharging a fire extinguisher inside the concourse. Officers attempted to make contact with the female, but she was non-compliant and sprayed officers with the fire extinguisher. Despite being assaulted, officers were able to detain the combative female. Three airport flight attendants with complaints of respiratory discomfort were treated on scene by EMS and were later cleared. Officers relocated the arrestee, Ms. Holder to the precinct where she continued to behave erratically and combative, by spitting and kicking at officers. Officers requested EMS to evaluate Ms. Holder due to minor injuries she self-sustained during the incident. Ms. Holder was cleared by EMS and officers transported her to the Clayton County Jail with several charges pending, including assault. The investigation continues.
Please keep in mind the above information is preliminary in nature and can change as the investigation progresses and new information comes to light.
