Probation violations accounted for the arrests of two people stopped in a car Thursday afternoon north of Carmichael.
Sheriff’s officers pulled over the vehicle driven by Golden Peters, 30, on a public roadway at Chippendale and College Oak drives in North Highlands, less than five miles north of Carmichael. Peters’ vehicle had a large crack in the windshield that ran from the driver’s side to the passenger side of the window.

Both were booked at the county jail in Sacramento.
