On August 22, 2023, at 7:03 p.m. Gibson County Central Dispatch relayed a message to all city and county units that a Pike County Officer was attempting to catch up with a vehicle that was traveling 124 mph on Interstate 69 near the 40 mile marker.  Sgt. Loren Barchett located the vehicle driving 105 mph at the 22 mile marker.  Sgt. Barchett and Deputy Logan Lashbrook approached the vehicle, a Black 2023 Fiat Alfa Romeo and detected the odor of Marijuana coming from inside the vehicle.  At that point deputies began a roadside drug investigation. When the roadside investigation was complete the driver 21 year old Donavan Golder of Indianapolis was taken into custody and transported to the Gibson County Jail.  Upon arriving at the Gibson County Jail Mr. Golder was charged with Possession of Marijuana over 30 grams with a Prior Conviction, Driving While Suspended Prior, and Reckless Driving.  He has since posted a $650 bond. 
 
Assisting Deputy Lashbrook and Sergeant Barchett in his investigation was Haubstadt Officer Bryan Munnier.
