A man from Florida was arrested in Charlotte for DWI early last month. Police found the man after responding to the scene of a single vehicle accident. The man apparently crashed his vehicle into a power pole around 2:30 in the morning. The incident occurred on South Boulevard near Hebron Street.
Outbound lanes on South Boulevard had to be closed for several hours while the power lines that were down were cleaned up. It took additional time for crews to get power restored to the area. The man from Florida was charged with reckless driving to endanger in addition to DWI. One person had to be taking to the hospital with life-threatening injuries but is unclear how that person was involved in the accident exactly.
