Vermont State Police say a traffic stop in Sheldon on April 6 led to the arrest of a 41-year-old local resident on suspicion of driving under the influence. The stop occurred around 8:08 PM on VT Route 105 and Main Street due to several observed motor vehicle violations.
According to police, Troopers from the St. Albans Barracks conducted the stop and identified the driver as Luke Danyow. During the interaction, officers noted signs of impairment, prompting the arrest of Danyow without incident. He was taken to the St. Albans Barracks for processing and subsequently issued a citation to appear in Franklin County Superior Court.
Danyow is scheduled to appear in court on May 4, 2026, at 8:00 AM. Police emphasize that the charges are allegations, and the legal proceedings may evolve as the case progresses. Individuals are encouraged to contact the criminal court clerk for any changes to the court schedule.
