(02/06/2001)
Grantsville resident Christopher Cabe Sims, 24, has been charged with 3rd offense DUI, according to Gilmer County Deputy Sheriff Mike Stalnaker. Stalnaker said Sims was driving erratically on Walnut Street in Glenville when he was spotted. He said he failed a field sobriety test and was arrested.

Sims has two previous DUI convictions in 1996 and 2000, according to police. He was cited by Calhoun Deputy Sheriff Carl Ballengee for not having his vehicle under control on December 18, 2000, but Sims was not intoxicated.

The Sims truck went left of center on Mt. Zion Ridge striking a county truck occupied by Donzel Boothe, injuring him. (SEE Hur Herald archives 1/13/01)
