Early Saturday morning, March 31, police were dispatched to State Road 17 west of Plymouth to check on a female that was walking barefoot along the roadway.
About 4:15 a.m. a county police officer located 35 year old Natlie R. Matthes of Plymouth. She had just been involved in a motor vehicle crash at State Road 17 and Sycamore Road. After make sure she was not injured officers determined that Matthes had been drinking.
Natlie was taken for and failed a certified test and was lodged in the Marshall County Jail for operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated and held on a $250 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.
