(La Porte, IN) - A La Porte area man who knocked over two trees is facing allegations of driving impaired.  David Wszolek made his initial appearance yesterday in La Porte Circuit Court.

According to police, he was the driver of a car that struck and knocked over two trees and

came to rest against a third tree in the 3200 block of North Fail Road in late October.  He had an alleged blood alcohol level of just over two times the legal limit.

Police said the charge was upgraded to a Level 6 felony because of a prior OWI conviction within the past 7-years.  Wszolek was not seriously injured.
