Texas woman arrested on multiple charges
On December 23, 2023, at 5:32 p.m. Gibson County Deputy U.B. Smith conducted a traffic stop on a White 2003 Ford F250 after observing multiple moving violations on the courthouse square in Princeton. Upon stopping the vehicle on West State Deputy Smith approached the vehicle and attempted to identify the driver. While speaking with the driver Deputy Smith detected obvious signs that the driver was under the influence of an unknown intoxicant. At that point Deputy Smith requested Deputy Quinten Might come to the scene and assist him in the investigation. While Deputy Smith conducted an investigation into the true identity of the driver Deputy Might began a roadside OWI investigation. At the conclusion of their investigation the driver who had been identified as 47 year old Melissa Ann Meyer of Grapevine Texas was taken into custody and transported to the Gibson County Jail. Ms. Meyer was charged with Possession of Methamphetamines, Possession of Paraphernalia, False Informing, and Operating a Vehicle While Intoxicated-Refusal. She is being held on an outstanding warrant through Tarrant County Texas pending the resolution of this Indiana Case.
