Fergus Falls Jail Books Perkins on DWI Charges<\/h2>\n

FERGUS FALLS, Minn.<\/strong> (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>) \u2014 A 40-year-old woman was recently booked into the Otter Tail County Jail.<\/p>\n

Alcohol-Related DWI Allegation<\/h2>\n

License Allegation Also Listed<\/h2>\n

The third allegation involves driving without a valid license for the vehicle class.<\/p>\n

General jail information is available through the official Otter Tail County website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A jail booking records an arrest and does not establish guilt.<\/p>\n

Perkins is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.<\/p>\n
