While on routine patrol, a Deputy with the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department stopped a vehicle for speed on Monday night, September 29th, at about 7:15. The report does not indicate where the traffic stop occurred.

While talking with the driver, Miguel Contreras, it was found that he had never held a valid driver’s license.

The criminal charge for booking Contreras into the Marshall County Jail was operating a vehicle without ever obtaining a license. He was held on a $100 cash bond. Lyons Wrecker Service towed the vehicle.

Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is merely an allegation that a crime has been committed, and there is only probable cause to believe that 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.
