Caleb Smith was transported to the Marshall County Jail and booked in for possession of marijuana and driving while suspended with a prior and a suspension with 10 years.
The registered owner of the vehicle, Kimberly A. Rustman, was issued a summons for possession of marijuana and released from the scene with the juvenile.
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.
