On August 23, 2020, at 7:35 a.m. Gibson County Deputy Bryce Jutzi conducted a traffic stop on White 2006 Box Truck on State Road 64 for traveling Westbound in the eastbound lane. Upon approaching the vehicle it appeared that the driver 55-year-old Barry Ramsey of St. Peters Missouri may be under the influence of an unknown intoxicant. At that point Deputy Jutzi began a roadside DUI investigation with the assistance of officers from the Mount Carmel Police Department. During the investigation Methamphetamines, Marijuana, and drug paraphernalia were found in the vehicle. At the conclusion of the investigation Mr. Ramsey was transported to the Gibson County Jail where he was charged with Possession of Marijuana, Possession of Methamphetamines, Possession of Paraphernalia, and Operating a Vehicle While Intoxicated. He remains in custody on a $1500 bond.
All Criminal defendants are to be presumed innocent until, and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
