PHOENIX (AP) - The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office says a man has been arrested on suspicion of drunken driving in a crash that left two detention officers who were driving a prisoner transport van injured.
Sgt. Joaquin Enriquez says 27-year-old Edwin Boice is facing charges of endangerment aggravated assault and DUI.
Officials say there were no prisoners in the van when it overturned in an intersection early Friday morning after dropping off prisoners at a county jail in downtown Phoenix.
Enriquez says the officer driving the van suffered minor injuries and that the other officer suffered head injuries that Enriquez called non-life threatening.
Boice, who was driving the other car, wasn’t hurt and stayed at the scene.
