An 18-year-old Plymouth man was arrested Saturday evening after a police officer spotted him driving without a valid license, according to the Police Report.
Yecnuar Hernandez-Zelaya of West Lake Avenue was taken into custody shortly after 5 p.m. on February 21 and charged with operator never licensed.
According to Corporal Schieber’s report, he was traveling on Jefferson Street when he observed Hernandez-Zelaya driving. The officer recognized both the driver and vehicle from a previous pursuit involving the same individual.
The officer said Hernandez-Zelaya was seen turning south onto Fifth Street, and he turned around and began traveling west on Adams Street. He observed the suspect vehicle pulling up and stopping outside a residence west of Fifth Street.
Hernandez-Zelaya reportedly attempted to walk away from the vehicle but complied with the officer's command to return to the vehicle. He was then taken into custody without further incident.
The suspect was booked into the Marshall County Jail and bonded out approximately two and a half hours later.
