Officers from the Plymouth Police Department arrested two individuals for driving without having a driver’s license.

On Friday at 6:30 p.m., officer Fisher conducted a traffic stop on a speeding vehicle on Western Avenue north of North Street. The vehicle was traveling 50-mph in a 35-mph zone.

The driver was identified as Enco Morales Santiago, 23, from the 11,000 block of 14^th Road in Plymouth. He was taken into custody, transported to Marshall County Jail, and booked in at 7:21 p.m. for operating a vehicle without a license and given a $100 cash bond.

At 8:14 P.M. Morales Santiago was released on bond.

Sunday at 2:15 p.m., officer Krynock was patrolling North Michigan Street and saw a vehicle driven by 42-year-old Rigoberto Hernandes Castillo of the 900 block of West Harrison Street commit a traffic infraction. A traffic stop was conducted in the 1900 block of North Michigan Street and Castillo was found to be operating the vehicle without ever having received a license.

Castillo Hernandes was lodged in the Marshall County Jail on a $100 cash bond for driving without a license. He had two warrants for contempt of court and his bond was increased to $2,250.

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 entitled 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.
