On March 30, 2018, at 11:58 p.m. Gibson County Deputy Ben Kiesel conducted a traffic stop on a Silver 2012 Chevy passenger car for traveling in excess of 100 mph on US 41 near County Road 300 South. Upon approaching the vehicle Deputy Kiesel identified the driver as 29 year old Bryan Carrithers of Mt. Carmel, Illinois. After a brief investigation Mr. Carritthers was taken into custody and transported to the Gibson County Jail where he was charged with Reckless Driving. He has since posted a $900 bond.
