39-year-old Yulanda Mechell Montgomery had an altercation with Angela Lavender at the Gallatin Pike North Hobby Lobby on March 11th, 2023. Lavender reported that she recognized Montgomery as the person who made hostile and combative comments towards her on social media while in the store.

The store cameras captured the incident, and officers later obtained a warrant for Montgomery’s arrest on March 24th, 2023. Montgomery was later taken into custody for assault on July 7th, 2024.
