Officer Fisher with the Plymouth Police Department conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle after running the license plate, which indicated that the owner had a prior Driving While Suspended charge. The officer confirmed that the driver was the registered owner by checking the BMV photo and initiating the vehicle's traffic stop.
The driver, 65-year-old Dennis Harrell of Elm Street in Plymouth, pulled into the Duke of Oil Car Wash parking lot and was taken into custody for driving while suspended with a previous charge and for driving with no insurance and a prior conviction. Harrell was transported to Marshall County Jail, where he was booked and given a court date and bond.
Corporal McIntyre stopped 21-year-old Marbin Paguada Barralaga of West Adams Street for a traffic violation at Michigan and Jefferson Streets on Saturday, May 3rd at 1:30 in the afternoon.
During the investigation, the temporary license plate on the car was found to be fraudulent. Furthermore, the driver did not have a valid license and had never received one.
Barralaga was taken into custody without incident, transported to the Marshall County Jail, and turned over to jail staff for the booking process.
