A Bryan police arrest report from last Thursday night (December 19) shows an officer stopped a car for a taillight that was not working. The driver, 32 year old Imari Oliver of Houston, was arrested for driving with an invalid license. Oliver was also taken to jail for failing to pay more than $12,000 dollars in municipal court fines and fees.
