An Indiana state legislator pleaded guilty to drunken driving charges less than two weeks after police say he crashed his pickup truck through an interstate highway guardrail and drove away.
officers stopped Lucas, 58, walking near where they found the badly damaged truck, which has a state legislator license plate, parked behind a Seymour carpet store nearly 3 miles from the crash site.
An email message seeking comment on the plea agreement was sent to Jackson County Prosecutor Jeff Chalfant. Lucas told a state trooper that he drove away from the crash scene to get help and that he parked behind the business because he didn’t want to leave an oil leak in its front parking lot, the affidavit said.Advertisement
The plea agreement called for his driver’s license to be suspended for 60 days, although the judge gave Lucas permission to drive on weekdays for trips connected to the awning business he owns.
