On Wednesday morning around 11:30 A.M. Coffee County Deputy Aaron Miller was transporting Allison Summer Gipson age 22 of North 8th Avenue in Decherd from the court house to the Coffee County jail.
Gipson was at her scheduled probation appointment and was drug tested and failed. She was then taken to Circuit Court where Judge Craig Johnson revoked her bond. After taken into custody, Gipson was patted down by Deputy Janice Taylor and was found to be in possession of a bottle of prescription medication that was allegedly taken from her probation officer in the hood of her clothing. Gipson was then escorted to Deputy Aaron Miller’s patrol car by Miller and Deputy Taylor.
While in route to the jail, Gipson rolled down the back passenger side window and jumped out of the moving vehicle in front of Dotson’s Produce on the Hillsboro Highway. Miller stopped the vehicle and made a U-turn to go back around to where the woman had jumped out of the window. Upon his arrival Gipson was still trying to escape but was being held by two civilians who had witnessed the event.
An ambulance was called to the scene for transport because Gipson had sustained unknown injuries due to the speed of the vehicle and jumping from the window. She was transported to Unity Medical Center for treatment.
She was booked in at the Coffee County Jail on Thursday morning and is facing a charge of escape and 2 counts of theft of property with a bond of $28,000. She’ll be in court on May 19, 2016.
