PARKERSBURG — A man who allegedly caused multiple accidents driving the wrong way while under the influence on U.S. 50 last fall was one of 57 people indicted this week by the Wood County Grand Jury.

Andrew Gavin Warwick, 36, 589 Old River Road, Williamstown, was indicted on charges of driving in an impaired state causing serious bodily injury, second-offense aggravated driving in an impaired state and reckless driving, according to a release from the Wood County Prosecutor’s Office.

The incident happened on Nov. 29, 2023, when Warwick was reportedly traveling west in the eastbound lane of U.S. 50, according to court records. Around the 16.5 mile marker, his 2021 Toyota Tacoma collided head on with a 2022 Kia Niro driven by a Pennsboro woman.
