Last Friday Officer Arnold from the Plymouth Police Department responded to the report of male subject walking on the sidewalk in the 1200 block of North Center Street and brandishing a knife.
The male subject was identified as 46 year old Larry Baltes of Bremen. Baltes was arrested for public intoxication and incarcerated in the Marshall County Jail.
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.
