Teens Crash Into Building

From Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune in Wisconsin

Three males were transported to a local hospital Monday evening after a car they were in crashed through a gate and struck a Wisconsin Rapids building that was under construction. The driver of the car, 17-year-old Devin Adkins told police he passed out prior to the crash and was “under the influence of a controlled substance.” Officers found aerosol cans in the vehicle.

Two passengers, a 15-year-old and a 17-year-old were also involved in the crash. They later told police “Adkins' foot was on the accelerator when he lost consciousness.” As of Wednesday, the 15-year-old passenger remained in critical condition.

Adkins was arrested at the scene and charged with operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of a substance and causing bodily injury. Adkins’ bond was set at $10,000 with the condition that he would maintain absolute sobriety and wear an electronic monitoring device until his trial.
