There were only minor injuries sustained however, Tristen Moyer was found to be under the influence of alcohol. Field sobriety tests and a certified blood draw were done, and Moyer was found to be over two times the legal limit of alcohol.

They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
