It appears the driver whose vehicle struck a number of
hikers on parade in Damascus, in Washington County last Saturday, won’t be
charged.
Damascus Police Chief Bill Nunley said the driver, 87-year-old
Deward Blevins of Shady Valley, Tenn., had a medical issue that caused him to
lose control of his car. Nunley says authorities haven't found any criminal
intent.
Blevins remains hospitalized in stable condition while most
of the injured hikers were treated and released last Saturday.
