On October 15, 2023, at 1:52 a.m. Gibson County Deputy Wyatt Hunt conducted a traffic stop on US 41 near County Road 350 South after observing a Black 2012 Mazda SUV speeding.  Upon approaching the vehicle Deputy Hunt identified the driver as 23 year old Steve St Cois of Evansville.  During a roadside investigation Mr. St Cois was run through the National Crime Information Center and Indiana Data And Communications System and it was determined that Mr. St Cois was operating his vehicle without ever receiving a valid operator’s license.  At that point Mr. St. Cois was placed into custody and transported to the Gibson County Jail where he was charged with Operating a Vehicle Whiles Suspended on a Prior Conviction and Operator Never Licensed.  He has since posted a $650 bond. 
 
Assisting Deputy Hunt in his investigation was Deputy Bart Wagner and Princeton Officer Nicholas Rainey.
