On the evening of Saturday, July 29th, at approximately 11 o’clock, a Plymouth Police Officer was traveling east on Jefferson Street, approaching Third Street, when he saw a subject crawling on the edge of the roadway.
The officer stopped to assist and evaluate the subject, who was later identified as Oscar Gama-Barrios, 47 of West Jackson Street in Plymouth.
Mr. Barrios was found to be highly intoxicated. He was transported to St. Joseph Hospital and checked by the medical staff.
Oscar Barrios was then transported to the Marshall County Jail for Public Intoxication. He was released on a cash bond at 5:20 Sunday morning.
Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere 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.
