Illinois man, 24, arrested on DUI and weapons charges after Fairbanks rollover

Alaska State Troopers arrested a 24-year-old Illinois man on charges of driving under the influence and fourth-degree misconduct involving a weapon after a single-vehicle rollover in Fairbanks on Thursday evening.

Troopers responded to the rollover at Chena Ridge Road and Moonshine Run at about 7:08 pm Thursday, according to the troopers' Daily Dispatch report. Troopers said their investigation found that the driver, a 24-year-old man from Illinois, had committed DUI and fourth-degree weapons misconduct.

The man was remanded to the Fairbanks Correctional Center.

Fourth-degree misconduct involving a weapon is a class A misdemeanor under state law.

The report, posted late Thursday by the troopers' D Detachment, did not say whether anyone was hurt in the rollover or describe the weapon involved.

The troopers' report states that any charges it lists are merely accusations and that defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
