The Pottawattamie County Sheriff’s Office reports an Oakland man was arrested on an OWI charge at around 10:45-p.m. Thursday, after he was pulled over in Council Bluffs, on Highway 6 near McPherson Avenue. The deputy initially stopped 63-year old Charles Gordon Reed for having defective tires, but he was subsequently placed under arrest  OWI/1st offense, after he field tested well above the legal limit for intoxication (at .156). A subsequent test indicated a slightly less reading. Officials requested a blood test for intoxication be conducted on Reed, but the results of the test were not available at the time of the report. Reed was booked into the Pott. County Jail on the OWI charge, and cited for having defective tires.
