On Wednesday just before 2 a.m., Sergeant Taberski with the Plymouth Police Department initiated a traffic stop on a vehicle driving without headlights or taillights at the intersection of Michigan and Franklin Streets.
The driver was identified as 20-year-old Johan Mata of Polk Street in Plymouth. The officer found that Mata did not have a driver's license.
Mata was transported to the Marshall County Sheriff's Department and booked in for knowingly or intentionally operating a motor vehicle without ever receiving a license.
Mata’s $100 cash bond was paid within an hour, and he was released with a court date in Marshall County Superior Court II.
Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere 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.
