On Thursday, Officers with the Paducah Police Department were called to the intersection of South 6th Street and Kentucky Avenue after a report of a collision. Tracey Lampley, a PATS bus driver, reportedly told officers that she was driving through a green light when her bus was hit by another vehicle. The driver of the other vehicle, 36-year-old Zachary Collier, told officers that he couldn't remember how the collision happened.
Officers say Collier then failed a field sobriety test multiple times. He was arrested and lodged in the McCracken County Jail. Some of the passengers of the bus were taken to the hospital after complaining of neck and back pain.
Collier is being charged with a second offense DUI. Earlier in the week we reported on his first arrest after his vehicle allegedly ran off the road, hit a tree, landscaping, and a sign at BB&T Bank. That story can be found at the link below.
