A man has been jailed after nearly striking pedestrians as he drove into a lake at a popular Warren County park.
The Warren County Sheriff’s Office arrested 49-year-old Damien O. Lyles, of Nashville, Tennessee, on Sunday afternoon and charged him with DUI, first-degree wanton endangerment, resisting arrest, and reckless driving.
Lyles, police said, “was determined (to be) … very intoxicated and wantonly created a dangerous situation where he almost struck some pedestrians prior to driving into the water” at Basil Griffin Park, in the 2000 block of Three Springs Road.
He was lodged in the Warren County Regional Jail.
