Early Wednesday morning, August 28th, officers with the Plymouth Police Department found a male subject lying off the roadway in a residence's yard.

The male was identified as Gerado Cortez-Ruiz, 37, of Plymouth.

It was determined Cortez-Ruiz was under the influence of a controlled substance. He was transported to the Marshall County Jail and booked in for public intoxication as a class B misdemeanor and held on a $250 cash bond.

 

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.
