Hickory, KY (December 1, 2018) The Kentucky State Police (KSP) will be conducting traffic safety checkpoints throughout the Post 1 district, to check motorists for compliance with motor vehicle laws including driving under the influence statutes.  KSP utilizes traffic safety checkpoints to promote safety for motorists using the public roadways and to provide a deterrent for those who violate laws contained in the Kentucky Revised Statutes.

The intent of a traffic safety checkpoint is to provide for a high visibility, public safety service, focusing on vehicular equipment deficiencies, confirming appropriate registration and insurance of vehicles, and the valid licensing of drivers.  Violations of law or other public safety issues that arise shall be addressed.

Traffic safety checkpoints will allow the Kentucky State Police the opportunity to periodically concentrate its efforts in checking for violations of Kentucky traffic and regulatory laws that will ultimately increase the safety of the citizens within the Commonwealth.  Drivers encountering a traffic safety checkpoint are requested to have their operator’s license, vehicle registration receipt and proof of insurance readily accessible.  Drivers with this information in hand, those with no violations of law and minimal roadway congestion can reasonably expect to be delayed for no more than 30 seconds to a few minutes.

Toby and Billy May of Gilbertsville and Karly Scott of Paducah arrested by McCracken County Police.

On December 19, 2018 detectives observed a Suzuki SUV failed to stop for a school bus that was actively unloading students on Bridge Street near the Wall Street intersection. Forty year old Toby May of Gilbertsville was identified being the driver.
The investigation showed that Toby May had a suspended driver’s license and was also DUI.

As detectives were stopping the vehicle, the rear passenger, 37 year old Karly Scott of Paducah, was observed moving around erratically. Detectives further observed Scott attempting to conceal items inside her pants. It was ultimately determined
that Scott had concealed a quantity of methamphetamine on her person.

Sixty-three year old Billy May of Gilbertsville was also a passenger and he was found to be manifestly under the influence of alcohol.

All occupants were arrested and charged as follows:

Toby May:
1) Pass/Loading/Unloading/School/Church Bus 1st. Offense

2) DUI 1st Offense

3) Operating on Suspended/Revoked License

Billy May:

Paducah man arrested after attempting to gain entry into Reidland home

On December 20, 2018 at approximately 11:04, The McCracken County Sheriff’s Office received a call from a resident on Lakeside Drive. The caller advised a man walked up to their door and began knocking multiple times. No vehicles were in the driveway so by all appearances no one was home. The man, after knocking repeatedly, opened the screen door and continuously knocked on the main door. Once he stopped knocking, the man was then observed depressing the lever on the doorknob and made several attempts to enter the residence by jiggling the door handle.

Units responding to the call arrived within minutes and located the suspect within eyesight of the residence he had just attempted to gain entry to. The male subject was identified as 47 year old Donald B. Driver. Driver, when observing the deputy
pull up, immediately and unprovoked stated that he had not stolen anything. A criminal record check revealed Driver to have prior convictions for theft and burglary. Furthermore Driver couldn’t provide a valid reason for being on the road in question on a rainy 45 degree day and was charged with attempted burglary and lodged in the McCracken County Regional Jail.

The vast majority of day time burglaries have proven over and over to unfold in a similar manner. Individuals with criminal intentions will knock in efforts to discern if anyone is at home or not before checking for unlocked doors, windows, etc. If someone answers the door individuals will often give some excuse and claim they are at the wrong residence, looking for someone and provide a fictitious name, or even inquire if the homeowner desires a particular service (tree work, driveway
sealed, yard work, etc.).

Although the investigation in this particular case is unclear as to what the end outcome may have ultimately been it is clear that Mr. Driver had no legitimate business to be attempting to open the front door of the caller’s residence.

We would like to take this opportunity to remind citizens to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity to your local law enforcement.
