According to police reports, a traffic stop on Route 2 in Danville, Vermont, on March 25 led to the arrest of 64-year-old David Chesbrough from St. Johnsbury. Officers from the St. Johnsbury barracks initiated the stop after observing several motor vehicle violations.
During the encounter, police say an investigation revealed that Chesbrough was operating the vehicle under the influence of alcohol. He was subsequently taken into custody and transported to the Vermont State Police barracks for processing, where he was later released on a citation.
Chesbrough has been charged with driving under the influence, and he is scheduled to appear in Caledonia Superior Court on April 13 at 8:30 a.m. It is important to note that these charges are allegations, and the court date and charges may change as the case progresses. Individuals are encouraged to contact the criminal court clerk to confirm the arraignment time.
