NORTH VERNON, Ind. – The North Vernon Police Department (NVPD) arrested an alleged intoxicated driver during a traffic stop on Sunday morning, October 5.
NVPD Officer Alex Holt conducted a traffic stop on County Road 300N at 4 a.m. after observing a white Volkswagen near Casey’s General Store on State Road 7 being driven erratically. The vehicle later left the convenience store parking lot without taillights, and it allegedly crossed the center line several times before coming to a stop.

After the test, Munoz was booked into the Jennings County Jail on preliminary charges of:
- Operating While Intoxicated
