RUTLAND, Vt. — A 28-year-old Rutland man has been cited on a charge of driving under the influence after a traffic stop on Washington Street in Rutland early Monday, Vermont State Police said Tuesday.

Troopers from the state police barracks in Rutland pulled a car over at about 2:16 a.m. after seeing a traffic violation, police said. The driver was identified as Jacob Corti of Rutland.

While speaking with Corti, troopers noticed signs that he was impaired, according to police. He was arrested and taken to the Rutland City Police Department for processing.

Corti was released with a citation ordering him to appear in court. He is scheduled to be arraigned Nov. 30 in Vermont Superior Court, Rutland Criminal Division, on a first-offense DUI charge, police said.

Police did not describe the violation that led to the stop or the signs of impairment troopers said they saw.

The charge is an allegation, and Corti is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
