The Acura was then struck by a 2016 GMC Sierra who failed to stop. The impact of the crash caused the Acura to crash into the Chevy.

The 22 year old female backseat passenger in the Acura was transported to Morristown Medical Center with neck/back pain. All other occupants in the vehicles reported that they were uninjured.

The driver of the 2011 GMC Sierra, Robert Palmer, 33, Georgetown, Texas, was placed under arrest and subsequently processed.

He was charged with the following offenses:

• 1 count of Assault by Auto in the 4th Degree
• Driving While Intoxicated in a School Zone
• Reckless Driving

Mr. Palmer was released on his own recognizance pending his court date.

Editors Note: A criminal complaint is merely an accusation. Despite this accusation, the defendant is presumed innocent until he or she is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
