Traffic stop leads to arrest of Grayville woman on OWI charge.

On March 11, 2023, at 1:06 a.m. Deputy Garrett Tuley conducted a traffic stop on a Silver 2007 Chrysler PT cruiser for failing to maintain their lane of traffic while traveling Southbound on US 41.  Upon approaching the vehicle Deputy Tuley identified the driver as 31-year-old Elizabeth Pruitt of Grayville, Illinois.  While speaking with Ms. Pruitt Deputy Tuley observed indicators that Ms. Pruitt may be under the influence of alcohol.  At that point Deputy Tuley began a roadside DUI investigation.  Once his roadside investigation was completed Ms. Pruitt was transported to the Gibson County Jail where she was charged with Operating a Vehicle While Intoxicated (Refusal) with a Prior Conviction.  Ms. Pruitt has since posted a $1500 bond. 
 
Assisting Deputy Tuley in his investigation was Fort Branch Officer Jeff Beck. 
 
All Criminal defendants are to be presumed innocent until, and unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
