OWI Charges Against Man Alleged to Have Caused Death

(La Porte, IN) - Allegedly killing someone while driving impaired didn’t stop a man from driving while intoxicated again.  Tertius McClain was arraigned yesterday in La Porte Circuit Court.

 

According to court records, the Chicago man was stopped two months ago for driving erratically on the Indiana Toll Road near Rolling Prairie.  Police say he was holding a beer can and staggered out of the vehicle.  According to authorities, not only was his blood alcohol level extremely high but he illegally had a gun as a convicted felon.

 

The 41-year old McClain was charged in Chicago two years ago for causing a death while driving

impaired.
