On October 22, 2018, at 5:30 p.m. Gibson County Deputy Austin Farrington conducted a traffic stop on a Tan 2001 Chevy Tahoe on US 41 near County Road 100 East. Upon approaching the vehicle Deputy Farrington identified the driver as 33 year old Charles Collier of Evansville, Indiana. During a roadside investigation Deputy Farrington ran Mr. Collier through the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles and learned Mr. Collier was listed as a Habitual Traffic Violator. At that point Deputy Farrington placed Mr. Collier in custody and transported him to the Gibson County Jail. Upon arriving at the Gibson County Jail Mr. Collier was charged with Operating a Vehicle While a Habitual Traffic Violator. He has since posted a $1250 bond.
