Deputy Bates stopped to check the welfare of the subject and identified him as 40-year-old Jacob Wood of Boonville. During the interaction, Deputy Bates performed a wanted check on Mr. Wood and discovered that he had an outstanding Failure To Appear warrant through Vanderburgh County.

Once the roadside investigation was finished Mr. Wood was transported to the Gibson County Jail where he was charged with Public Intoxication, Possession of Marijuana, and Possession of a Legend Drug.
Assisting Deputy Bates in his investigation was Sgt. John Fischer as well as Princeton Officers Sgt. Ben Kiesel and Nick Rainey.
