Monday

At 8:15 a.m., a DeKalb police officer on patrol observed a red Buick turn west onto Hillcrest Drive from Blackhawk Road. The vehicle had no front license plate, and the driver was not wearing a seat belt. The officer initiated a traffic stop. The driver, Antoineisha L. Williams, 18, of DeKalb, only had her student identification with her. When the officer asked for her insurance card, Williams asked the passenger if he had insurance. The passenger, Brian L. Sherman, 21, of DeKalb, was the owner of the car and produced an insurance card. The officer found Williams had a suspended driver’s license and was placed Williams under arrest. The officer allowed Sherman to call a friend to take the car since his license was revoked. The officer took Williams to the DeKalb Police Department and found the card did not belong to the owner. Sherman came to the police department to post bond for Williams. The officer asked Sherman about the insurance and Sherman said he paid money to a friend to buy insurance from him. Sherman was placed under arrest. Both Williams and Sherman were later released on bond.
