Alleged Drunken Driver Pleads Not Guilty in Crash that Killed Norwood Resident

PLAINVILLE, MA — A North Attleboro man charged with killing a motorcyclist while driving drunk has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Robert Suvall, 68, faces multiple charges including motor vehicle homicide while operating under the influence of alcohol and his third OUI, according to the Sun Chronicle. He was recently arraigned in Norfolk Superior Court in Dedham and is free on $5,000 bail.
