Joshua Simmons appeals his conviction of second-offense operating while under the influence, challenging the denial of his motion to suppress evidence obtained as a result of a traffic stop. OPINION HOLDS: Deferring to the credibility findings by the district court, we find the State met its burden to show the officer had reasonable suspicion to initiate the traffic stop. We affirm the denial of the motion to suppress.
