Noemi Garza, center, a Calhoun County sheriff's deputy who was arrested by Kalamazoo police on June 13, pleaded not guilty during arraignment in Kalamazoo County District Court on charges of drunken driving, resisting police. A Calhoun County sheriff's deputy who was drunk when she crashed her car in June in Kalamazoo has been ordered by a judge to serve six months of probation.

Noemi Garza, 32, learned her sentence Tuesday during a hearing before Kalamazoo County District Judge Christopher T. Haenicke, Chief Assistant Prosecutor Carrie Klein said.

Garza, of Hastings, pleaded guilty in October to one count each of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated and possession of a firearm while intoxicated in connection with a June 13 crash near Douglas Avenue and West Main Street.

The two misdemeanor charges each are punishable by a maximum sentence of 93 days in jail.

On Tuesday, Haenicke ordered Garza to serve six months of probation and pay $425 in court costs and fees for the OWI charge, Klein said. For the weapons offense, Haenicke ordered Garza to pay an additional $200 in court fees.

In exchange for her plea in the case, misdemeanor charges of attempted resisting and obstructing police and failure to stop at the scene of a collision were dismissed at Garza's sentencing Tuesday.
