A 19-year-old Illinois man was arrested early Friday morning after a Plymouth police officer pulled him over for speeding on U.S. 30.
At approximately 3:35 a.m. on April 24, Patrolman Allen with the Plymouth Police Department initiated a traffic stop on a westbound vehicle just west of the Michigan Street overpass.
Upon speaking with the driver, identified as Douglas Caal, 19, of Aurora, Illinois, the officer discovered that Caal was operating the vehicle without ever having obtained a driver's license.
Caal was taken into custody at the scene and transported to the Marshall County Jail. He was booked and lodged on a charge of operating a motor vehicle without ever receiving a license.
