A Plymouth man was arrested on Saturday evening after he was seen urinating on a stop sign at Garro and Fifth Streets.
About 6:50 Plymouth Police Officer Chad Beatty responded to the complaint of an intoxicated male. He located 35 year old Joshua McCarty who resides on North Walnut Street. McCarty was taken into custody for Public Intoxication and Possession of Marijuana and transported to Marshall County Jail where he was held on a $500 cash bond.
Listeners and 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.
