A man was injured and charged with DUI following a two-vehicle accident Thursday afternoon at Madisonville Road and the Bypass.

It happened a little before 4 p.m. when 22-year old Caleb Sims of Hopkinsville rear-ended a stopped pickup on the Bypass operated by 28-year old Allen Jackson of Illinois.

A Hopkinsville police report says CPR was being administered to prior to officers’ arrival, as Sims was unresponsive and EMS personnel later revived him with Narcan.

Sims was taken by EMS to Jennie Stuart Medical Center for treatment of injuries and potential medical issues and drugs are listed as a factor in the crash on the citation.
