On Friday, February 2, at approximately 11 p.m., Trooper Jarod Sheetz was patrolling near Cliff Drive and South Cicott Street when he observed a black GMC Envoy disregard a stop sign. Trooper Sheetz stopped the vehicle and identified the driver as Angel Rivera Caceres, 52, of Logansport, IN.
As Sheetz was speaking with Caceres, he detected an odor of cannabis coming from inside the vehicle and that Caceres was displaying signs of impairment. During his investigation, Trooper Sheetz was able to develop probable cause to believe that Caceres had operated a vehicle while intoxicated.
Further investigation revealed Caceres had three active warrants out of Elkhart and Cass Counties. Caceres was also found to be in possession of suspected cocaine. Caceres was incarcerated at the Cass County Jail and is currently being held without bond. The toxicology results are pending.
