DUI charges

HUMMELS WHARF - A Sunbury man was charged by state police at Selinsgrove with driving under the influence following a traffic stop Sept. 28 along Route 11/15 near the bypass in Monroe Township, Snyder County.

Troopers said Jeffrey Holub, 46, was driving a 1999 Ford Escort about 1 a.m. when he was pulled over for a traffic violation. He failed field sobriety testing, troopers said, and was placed under arrest.

Blood testing found his blood alcohol content to be 0.235 percent, troopers said, exceeding the legal limit of 0.08 percent.

Two counts of DUI and one count each of careless driving and disregard of traffic lane were filed at the office of Magisterial District Judge Edward Mihalik Jr., Selinsgrove.

WARRIOR RUN - Two people were injured in a two-vehicle crash Friday evening at Interstate 180 Exit 5 and Route 54 in Delaware Township.

According to state police at Milton, Pamela A. Craigie, 49, of Warminster, was stopped in a 2009 Toyota Matrix at the off ramp at 7:25 p.m. before attempting a U-turn and collided with a 2000 Ford Mustang driven west on Route 54 by Joshua S. Confer, 25, of Turbotville.

Confer and a passenger in Craigie's vehicle, Jena L. Craigie, 19, of Warminster, each suffered moderate injuries, troopers said, adding that all three were wearing seat belts.

Confer and Jena L. Craigie were each transported by Warrior Run Area Ambulance to Evangelical Community Hospital, Lewisburg.

One count of turning movements and required signals was filed against Pamela A. Craigie at the office of Magisterial District Judge Robert J. Bolton, Milton.

Impersonating officer

BENTON - A Benton teen faces multiple charges for allegedly initiating traffic stops on three female motorists between June and Sunday, state police at Bloomsburg said Saturday.

Christopher Donald Warnig is accused of using red and blue emergency lights installed on his silver 2011 Volkswagen Jetta to initiate the three stops, troopers said, during which he was allegedly wearing a blue emergency medical technician uniform.

He is a volunteer EMT and fireman, troopers said.

Warnig was arraigned Thursday by Magisterial District Judge Ola E. Stackhouse, Millville, on three counts each of false imprisonment, impersonating a public servant and disorderly conduct and two counts of displaying improper lights. He was released on $50,000 unsecured bail and faces a preliminary hearing Wednesday in Columbia County.
