Pennsylvania Man Charged after Huffing and Driving Leads to Car Accident

Via WeAreCentralPA.com


A car accident earlier this month that sent three people to the hospital is now believed to be caused by a Pennsylvania man huffing behind the wheel.

On May 5th, a pick up truck driving at a high rate of speed smashed into a guide-rail in Roaring Spring, PA.  The car flipped over injuring the three people riding inside.  Officers have come across evidence that the three young adults in the truck were huffing or using aerosol chemicals to get high before the crash.

The driver is now being charged with, "felony counts of aggravated assault while driving under the influence and being under the influence of a solvent or noxious substance at the time of the crash."

The Roaring Spring Police Chief says, "his department is seeing more cases of young people using house-hold chemicals to get high despite the danger of the practice."
