(KNOX CO.) - A Vincennes, Ind. man was arrested after police said he was under the influence of several drugs while operating a moped with his juvenile son aboard.
Karl Tislow, 46, was arrested on a charge of driving while intoxicated with a passenger younger than 18, a Class D felony.
Around 7:20 p.m. Wednesday, police said a trooper saw Tislow disregard a stop sign at the intersection of Chestnut and St. Clair avenues. The trooper immediately initiated a traffic stop and observed Tislow's 11-year-old was the passenger.
