A man was sentenced to five years in prison after a drunk driving car accident that occurred in June 2010. After the accident, the man had a blood alcohol-level of nearly three times the legal limit.
The 32-year-old man pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in connection with the accident. The incident began when the man was driving the wrong way down the road and an officer with the Arizona Department of Public Safety saw the headlights heading toward him and tried to pull the man over.
A few moments later, the man’s pickup truck hit the police car causing extensive damage. A tire then flew off of the truck and struck a Suburban and the truck continued to drive off. Nearly 300 feet later, the man’s truck stopped. He was charged with aggravated assault, endangerment and leaving the scene of an accident.
