Shelby Township Woman Arrested for Operating While Intoxicated
On December 21, 2024, at 3:01 AM, Gabriela Ljuljgjuraj, a 20-year-old resident of Shelby Township, Michigan, was arrested by the Shelby Township Police Department in Macomb County.

Operating while intoxicated in Michigan applies to individuals operating a vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08% or higher, or while visibly impaired due to alcohol or drugs. For individuals under 21, Michigan’s zero-tolerance law imposes stricter limits, prohibiting any BAC of 0.02% or more. A first-offense OWI is classified as a misdemeanor and carries significant penalties, which may include:
- Fines: Up to $500
- Jail Time: Up to 93 days
- License Suspension: Up to 180 days (with restricted driving privileges potentially available after 30 days)
- Community Service: Up to 360 hours
- Additional Requirements: Completion of alcohol education or treatment programs and possible installation of an ignition interlock device.
Ljuljgjuraj is expected to appear in court to address the charge. Authorities in Macomb County emphasize the importance of compliance with state OWI laws, particularly for younger drivers, as impaired driving remains a leading cause of traffic accidents and fatalities. This case highlights the serious legal and personal consequences of operating a vehicle under the influence.
