27-year-old Isaak Helms was arrested for driving under the influence and driving with a suspended license on October 19th. Officers were dispatched to Old Lebanon Dirt Rd. regarding a single-car wreck and observed Helms in the front seat of the vehicle in the ditch as they arrived. Helms was visibly intoxicated when speaking with officers as they noticed two empty beer cans in his center console and unidentified pills on the floorboard. Helms consented to sobriety tests and performed poorly. Officers Mirandized Helms, and then he stated that he drank two beers before driving and that he was traveling 50 mph around a sharp curve, causing him to veer off in a ditch. Helms became extremely belligerent after being put in the back of the patrol car and began to make various racial slurs towards Jews and African Americans. Helms even insinuated that he partakes in terrorist activities against Israelis and made personal insults towards officers. Officers ran Helms’s license, and it came back as suspended.
