Thirty-seven-year-old Justin Wayne Milam of West Chester was initially arrested by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office for fifth-degree criminal mischief and reckless driving causing serious injury, a Class D felony, on August 30th. Milam could now also face a pair of new felony charges pending DCI lab results for operating while intoxicated, third or subsequent offense, and possible felony evading. Both of these potential charges are Class D felonies with a possible prison sentence of five years and a maximum possible fine of $7,500 each.
Milam showed up at the home of a Keota resident whom he had a disagreement with and proceeded to start doing doughnuts in the front yard before hitting the homeowner with the ATV and running the victim over while leaving the scene.
Milam was arrested and taken to the Washington County Jail; KCII will bring you more information as it becomes official.
