A Texas man is facing wanton endangerment charges after he crashed his vehicle Saturday on Gate 7 Road in Christian County.
According to the report from Christian County Sheriff’s Deputy Michael Oxford, deputies responded to Gate 7 Road for reports of a motor vehicle collision. Upon arrival, contact was made with 24-year old Enrique Martinez of Fort Hood, Texas, who was in the back of a Military Police cruiser.
He allegedly admitted to drinking several alcoholic beverages before driving and did not realize that his vehicle had been crashed. He reportedly performed poorly on field sobriety tests.
While attempting to gain access to Fort Campbell, Martinez is alleged to have nearly struck another vehicle head-on.
He was arrested and charged with DUI and first-degree wanton endangerment.
