Blood Results Thrown Out; DUI Suspect’s Name Wasn’t On Order

From the Associated Press — A man who crashed his SUV and fled into a northern Michigan river will likely dodge DUI charges. His name wasn’t on the search warrant that authorized a blood sample. The Michigan Court of Appeals affirmed a lower court decision in favor of the driver in Cheboygan County. The prosecutor argued that an attached affidavit with details of the 2020 crash in Tuscarora Township should be sufficient. But the court disagreed. The man faces other charges, including resisting police and driving without a valid license. He ran into the Indian River after his SUV landed on its side.
