(6-22-25) Douglas Applegate (57) Celina was arrested by the Ohio State Highway Patrol on a 3rd degree felony of having weapons while under disability, and two 1st degree misdemeanor charges of DUI.

He is presently being held with no bond at the Celina Adult Detention Center, awaiting court hearings at the Mercer County Common Pleas and Celina Municipal Courts.

In Ohio, possessing a firearm or dangerous ordnance while under disability is a third-degree felony. This means a person cannot legally acquire, have, carry, or use a firearm if they are a fugitive from justice, under indictment or convicted of a felony offense of violence or drug offense, drug dependent, a chronic alcoholic, or under adjudication of mental incompetence. A conviction carries a potential prison sentence of up to three years and a fine of up to $10,000
