A 23-year-old Walkerton man is facing multiple charges, including operating while intoxicated, after allegedly running a red traffic light and pulling out in front of other vehicles in Plymouth.
According to the Plymouth Police Department, the incident occurred on the evening of April 15th. At approximately 6:30 p.m., Corporal Schieber initiated a traffic stop near the intersection of Jefferson and Center Street after observing a vehicle disregard a red light and create a traffic hazard for other drivers.

Following a chemical test, Urban was taken into custody and transported to the Marshall County Jail. He was lodged on preliminary charges of operating while intoxicated on a controlled substance, OWI endangerment, and possession of marijuana.

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.
