RURAL CERRO GORDO COUNTY – A Rockwell man is guilty for a third time of drunk driving.
A Cerro Gordo county deputy stopped a vehicle driven by 40-year-old Joseph Howard Schoenfeldt of Rockwell just before 1 AM Friday morning at Partridge Avenue and 210th Street. After an investigation, Schoenfeldt was arrested on a charge of second-offense operating while intoxicated and open container of alcohol. Schoenfeldt later pled guilty to second-offense operating while intoxicated. He was sentenced to 7 days in jail, his driver’s license was revoked and he must pay $2,809.27 in fines and court fees. The open container charge was dismissed.
Schoenfeldt was guilty of drunk driving back in 2008 after an arrest by the Cerro Gordo county sheriff’s office and also in 2003 after an arrest by Mason City police.
