Ohio Man Charged With DUI And Felony Assault After Johnson County Crash

VAN LEAR, Ky. (WMDJ) — An Ohio man is facing charges following a two-vehicle crash in Van Lear, according to the Johnson County Sheriff's Office.

 

Authorities say the crash happened February 14 on Ky. 302.

 

According to a citation, both drivers were outside their vehicles when deputies arrived. The driver of the second vehicle reportedly complained of injuries to her leg and ankle.

 

Police say 39-year-old David Allen Bowling of Columbus, Ohio, initially denied drinking but later admitted he had consumed alcohol.

 

Officials say Bowling first refused EMS transport but later asked to go to the hospital after being told he would be taken to the Big Sandy Regional Detention Center.

 

A breath test reportedly showed a blood alcohol concentration of .202. The legal limit in Kentucky is .08.

 

Bowling was later transported to Paintsville ARH for treatment.

 

He is charged with DUI (first offense) and second-degree assault.
