Show Headline Wrong In Listing Driving Charge A headline which appeared in the Feb. 12, 1981 issue of Garfield County News stated: "Panguitch Man Cited in Traffic, DUI." It has been brought to the attention of News editors that Garland Sawyer, about whom the story under the headline was written, was not cited for driving under the influence, but was cited for two class B misdemeanors: one for reckless driving and one for illegal consumption, both of which allegedly took place Feb. 4, 1981. Sawyer, a resident of Panguich, was driving a vehicle at speeds clocked at up to 114 miles per hour, according to Utah Highway Patrol Trooper Craig Twitchell, who pursued him after observing his vehicle traveling at excessive speeds five miles north of Panguitch about 11 p.m. on Feb. 4, 1981. |
