Upon approaching the Silver 2024 Toyota Camry Deputy Bates detected multiple clues that the driver may be impaired. At that point he began a roadside DUI investigation. Once the inquiry was completed Deputy Bates placed the driver, 23-year-old Brett Horning of Princeton into custody and transported him to the Gibson County Detention Center.
Princeton Officers David Jones, Ben Kiesel, Landon Perryman, and Gibson County Sergeant John Fischer assisted in this investigation.
