Plymouth Police Officers were dispatched to 223 North Plum Street Monday evening just before 9 for an unwanted guest who was intoxicated and who may be armed with a handgun.
Officer Emenhiser arrived on the scene and ordered 35 year old David R. Erdelyi of Elkhart to stop. Erdelyi got into his vehicle and started driving north on Plum Street at a high rate of speed. Attempting to pull him over, Officer Emenhiser turned on his lights and siren and the suspect failed to stop. He disregarded 4 stop signs and ended up crashing into a utility pole, breaking the pole and rolled the SUV he was in near the Delmonte Plant.
David Erdelyi was transported to the Plymouth Hospital for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash.
He has been charged with Resisting and several other misdemeanor charges.
Listeners and readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is merely an allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
