Driver Arrested Following Impaired Driving Complaint

A man was arrested overnight Monday, July 11 after the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department responded to a complaint of an impaired driver.

Marshall County police say a call came in about 1 a.m. ET about a possible impaired driver driving southbound on U.S. 31 from the north County Line.  An officer was able to locate the gray SUV and conducted a traffic stop.  The driver, Sergio Garcia Tulio, was reportedly found to be under the influence of alcohol.  A certified test later showed that Tulio was to be more than two times the legal limit of alcohol, according to the report.

Tulio was taken to the Marshall County Jail on preliminary charges of operating a vehicle with a BAC of .15 or more, operating a vehicle while intoxicated and operating a vehicle without ever receiving a driver’s license. 

Suspects are presumed innocent unless or until proven guilty in a court of law.
