A call to the Marshall County Dispatch Center of a possible intoxicated driver Thursday night, May 30th just before 7 p.m. ended with an arrest
Officers with the Plymouth Police Department were dispatched to 421 S. Michigan Street when a caller said that a male driver pulled up behind them in a vehicle and appeared to be intoxicated.
Officers found the male, identified as Nickolas Riley, 58, of Valparaiso, stopped in the middle of the roadway. While talking to Mr. Riley, officers detected a strong odor of alcohol coming from the vehicle. It was later determined that Mr. Riley had been drinking and was highly intoxicated. He was placed under arrest and transported to the Plymouoth hospital for a certified test. The certified test results showed a .384.
Nickolas Riley was then arrested and transported to Marshall County Jail, where he was booked in for driving while intoxicated with a prior conviction.
Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
