Corporal Schieber with the Plymouth Police Department arrested two people for OWIs following two different traffic stops.   

Early Saturday morning, July 20th, at approximately 5 o’clock, the Plymouth Police Officer identified a speeding vehicle south on Michigan and watched it turn west onto Harrison Street.  The same vehicle was then observed traveling west on Harrison Street without headlights before turning down an alleyway that parallels Plum Street, south of Harrison Street.  A traffic stop was initiated in the alleyway and contact was made with the driver, Jose Guerrero, 23, of Plymouth.  Guerrero was suspected of being intoxication and after the officer’s investigation, he was taken into custody for operating a vehicle while intoxicated-over .15, and operating while intoxicated-endangering and lodged at the Marshall County Jail. 

Sunday morning, July 21st, at approximately 2 A.M., Officer Schieber initiated a traffic stop for multiple moving violations in the area of Third and Washington Streets.  The driver was identified as Daisy Allen, 18, of Plymouth. The passenger in the vehicle was Raelyn Sampson, 18, who is also from Plymouth. 

During the officer’s investigation, signs of impairment were identified in both the driver and passenger.  Raelyn Sampson was taken into custody for illegal consumption while Daisy Allen was taken into custody for operating a vehicle while intoxicated-endangerment and operating a vehicle while intoxicated-over .08.  Both teens were lodged at the Marshall County Jail.
