On 12/11/2019 at 6:27 A.M. the Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office conducted a traffic stop on a 2007 Jeep Liberty for failure to yield half of the roadway in the 3600 block of 450th Ave., Emmetsburg, Iowa. The driver of the vehicle was identified as Chanh Cam (59) of Ruthven, Iowa. Chanh was found to be driving on a suspended Iowa driver’s license. Chanh was placed under arrest and transported to the Palo Alto County Jail without incident to await his initial appearance before a judge. He was also cited for failure to yield half of the roadway.

A criminal charge is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
