A Villager was arrested at the wheel of a Lexus in defiance of the suspension of her driver’s license.
Joy Lingenfelter, 55, of the Village of Santiago, was driving a silver 2012 Lexus sedan shortly before 9 p.m. Thursday on Buenos Aires Boulevard at El Camino Real when a deputy noticed the decal on her license plate was expired, according to an arrest report from the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office. The license plate had expired Feb. 1, 2023.
During a traffic stop, the deputy found that Lingenfelter’s license had been suspended in 2022. In addition, she was wanted on a non-extradition warrant out of Georgia for failure to appear.
Lingenfelter was arrested on a charge of driving while license suspended. She was booked at the Sumter County Detention Center and released after posting $250 bond.
