Lab results stemming from an investigation into a January accident in Taylor County has resulted in charges for the driver. The Taylor County Sheriff’s Office late Wednesday night, said charges of operating while under the influence of a combination of alcohol and drugs were filed against 60-year-old Ricky Scott, of Lenox.  Scott was driving a 2002 Ford F-150 on J-20 southwest of Lenox January 16th,  when he swerved to miss a dog. His pickup left the road and flipped onto its side in a ditch.

Scott was transported by helicopter to a hospital in Des Moines after the crash. Authorities say a specimen taken from Scott following the accident was sent to the Iowa DCI Laboratory for analysis. The Iowa State Patrol assisted in the crash investigation.
