ZIONSVILLE, Ind. — A man was arrested for drunk driving and leaving the scene of a crash Saturday afternoon after his truck flipped off of a Zionsville road, injuring two of his passengers.
The Boone County Sheriff’s Office was called around 8 p.m. to the intersection of County Road 300 S. and County Road 21 E. on report of a vehicle rollover. Deputies arrived to find a GMC Envoy that had gone off the roadway and flipped “two to three times”.
