A Rochester woman was arrested on Saturday after police were dispatched for a vehicle that struck several mailboxes and a pole on Michigan Road north of the Veterans Parkway at the round-a-bout.
Corporal Ben McIntyre with the Plymouth Police Department located the suspect vehicle at Hoham Drive and Michigan Street. He initiated a traffic stop and the subsequent investigation revealed that the driver, 43-year-old Melissa Keller, was almost 4 times the legal limit.
Keller was transported to the Marshall County Jail and booked in for OWI with endangerment.

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.
