A 26-year-old Merrill man was arrested Monday evening after a deputy investigated a vehicle in the ditch in the Town of Pine River. At 8:30 p.m. a deputy came across the vehicle on US Hwy. 51 near State Rd. 64. The driver showed signs of impairment and was placed through field sobriety tests. Based upon the tests the man was taken into custody for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of drugs and brought to the Lincoln County Jail and held on a misdemeanor charge of obstructing an officer and a felony charge of bail jumping stemming from other charges.

A 29-year-old Tomahawk man was arrested Thursday morning on a warrant charge. The man was appearing in Lincoln County Court on a criminal matter.
