Officers with the Plymouth Police Department were dispatched to the area of U.S. 30 and Oak Drive on Sunday at about 8:30 p.m. for a vehicle traveling west on U.S. 30 that was all over the roadway.
City officers were in the area trying to locate the vehicle when a deputy with the Sheriff's Department located the vehicle and conducted a traffic stop at Love's Truck Stop.
Officer Fisher with the Plymouth Police Department took over the investigation. The driver was identified as Salleigh Torpy, 28, of Warsaw.
During the traffic stop, it was also determined that Torpy had been drinking. He was given a field sobriety test and a certified breath test, which showed Tropy’s BAC at .251 BAC. He was arrested and taken to Marshall County Jail for OWI, OWI above .15, and OWI Endangerment and held on a cash bond.
