POCATELLO (AP) - Pocatello police said a 23-year-old man caused a three-car crash and then fled the scene, leaving behind a woman and a baby girl in the car.
The Idaho State Journal reported Derrick Jim is to be arraigned Tuesday on charges of driving under the influence and injury to a child while driving under the influence.
Police said Jim rear-ended two cars which were waiting at an intersection Friday night. His vehicle flipped onto its roof and he fled, leaving behind a woman and a baby girl in the car. Police caught Jim shortly after the crash.
Jim, the woman and baby were treated at a local hospital for injuries not considered life-threatening. No one else was injured.
