UPDATE: Man charged with DUI, hit-and-run injury following Thursday evening crash
Mar. 21—MITCHELL — A Mitchell man has been charged with driving with a revoked license, first-offense driving under the influence and hit-and-run injury following a crash Thursday evening.
Andrew Seay, 50, was the driver of the GMC Sierra that collided with a motorcycle at the 1200 block of East Havens, according to police. The driver of the motorcycle, who is not being named, was transported to the hospital with injuries.
The crash occurred around 7 p.m.
Police say Seay's license was revoked in 2021 due to failure to pay child support. His preliminary breath test taken at the jail on Thursday evening following the crash was .248 percent, police told the Mitchell Republic on Friday. The legal driving limit in South Dakota is .08 percent.
Witness statements to police following the crash said Seay was driving the GMC, which was traveling east and turning into the trailer court when it allegedly failed to yield to the motorcycle traveling west.
Following the collision, witnesses said the GMC traveled into the trailer court and saw Seay exit the vehicle. The crash is still under investigation, police said.
