Early Sunday morning at about 12:30 a Plymouth Police Officer working Operation Pullover was dispatched to assist with a county traffic stop at U.S. 30 and U.S. 31.
A Marshall County Deputy stopped a vehicle for traffic violations and determined the driver had been drinking.
When Officer Fisher with the Plymouth Police Department arrived, he spoke to the driver, Luis Tiahuetl-Martin, 43, of Aurora, Illinois. The city officer got a strong odor of alcoholic beverage from the driver who was given field sobriety tests and refused a certified test. Officers obtained a warrant to draw his blood and the certified test results came back showing that Mr. Tiahuetl-Martin had a .218 blood alcohol content.
He was transported to Marshall County Jail, where he was booked for OWI above .15, OWI endangerment and operator never licensed.
Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is merely an 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.
