22-year-old Simeon Dehart was jailed on May 27th after flipping his truck into a ditch on McCrory Lane. When police arrived on the scene, Dehart was being checked out by EMTs and appeared to have no injuries. He was identified by his Pennsylvania driver’s license. Police could smell alcohol coming from his body as they spoke to him. They also noticed his red, watery eyes. The vehicle search yielded a loaded handgun in the center console and several Colt 45 beer cans. Police asked Dehart if he had anything to drink, and he said he had a couple of beers around 7 am that morning before driving from Pennsylvania. Dehart agreed to sobriety tests and performed poorly. Due to his test results, his physical indicators, and the open containers in the vehicle, he was taken into custody and transported to booking.
