A young Upstate man has been charged with failing to give right-of-way to vehicles in Clinton last Friday. The Clinton Police Department charged 31-year-old Alkebu Sunni Boyles of Laurel Drive, Greenville with Pedestrian Failing to Yield Right of Way and with Resisting Arrest.
One warrant states that on February 28th on A.B. Jacks Road inside Clinton, Boyles walked in the roadway when a shoulder was available and that he failed to yield the right of way to all vehicles on the highway.
A second warrant alleges that Boyles knowingly and willfully opposed arrest by a law enforcement officer, attempting to pull away from a law enforcement officer, on West Carolina Avenue near A.B. Jacks Road. He’s accused of tensing his body in an effort to prevent his arms being put behind his back, attempting to avoid restraints being put on him. He’s accused of multiple attempts to pull his arms away from the officer and of trying to break away from the officer.
He was later released on posting a $5000 cash or surety bond. The Pedestrian on Highway warrant had a $180 personal recognizance bond.
