The report of a driver swerving all over the roadway Tuesday afternoon just before two sent officers from the Plymouth Police Department to investigate.  

On August 27th, Plymouth Police were notified of a possible intoxicated driver eastbound on U.S. 30 from the West County line.

Officer Witkowski observed the vehicle swerving all over the roadway and initiated a traffic stop at the intersection of U.S. 30 and Oak Drive. Standardized Field Sobriety Tests ultimately proved that 21-year-old Cody Brooks of Nappanee was impaired.

Brooks was transported to the Marshall County Jail and booked in for OWI just before three p.m.  He was released on a cash bond at about 12:30 on Thursday morning.
