A Maryland man pleaded guilty Monday in Northampton Circuit Court to his third DWI in five years.
Sentencing for 43-year-old Fredy Enoc Romero, of Pinewood Drive in Clinton, was set for Feb. 3, 2025.
According to the court record, a state trooper clocked Romero driving 78 miles per hour in a 55-mile-per-hour zone on Lankford Highway in Cheriton on Oct. 18, 2023. When Romero was pulled over, the trooper said he could smell a strong odor of alcohol.
Romero was also charged with driving 20 miles or more over the speed limit, refusing a blood or breath test, and driving with an open container. Those charges were not prosecuted.
