Plymouth Police Department officers arrested three individuals on driving-related charges during the weekend.
The first arrest occurred at 9:30 a.m. Friday, December 12th when Officer Enyart received notification that a silver SUV traveling eastbound on U.S. 30 was registered to an owner with a suspended driver's license. The vehicle, bearing registration TTL955, was located and stopped on U.S. 30 just east of the Michigan Street exit.
The driver was confirmed to be the registered owner with a suspended license. Denielle Dowell, 44, of Trail Creek, was taken into custody and transported to the Marshall County Jail, where she was charged with driving while suspended with a prior conviction.
Later Friday afternoon, Patrolman Thornton observed a silver passenger car fail to use turn signals at two different locations during routine patrol. A traffic stop was conducted at Fifth and Washington Streets, where it was discovered that the driver had never obtained a driver's license.
Juan M. Ramirez Rangel, 46, of Plymouth, was arrested and transported to the Marshall County Jail. He was charged with operating a vehicle without ever obtaining a license with a prior conviction.
In a third incident on Sunday, December 14th, Officer Wallace responded to a residence on West Jackson Street for an unknown problem. Upon arrival, Wallace learned that a verbal argument had occurred between residents at the home.
During the investigation, officers determined that Jorge Meda, 48, had been operating his vehicle while intoxicated. Meda was taken into custody without incident and transported to the Marshall County Jail, where he faces charges of operating a vehicle while intoxicated.
All three individuals were lodged at the Marshall County Jail.
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.
