EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) – An Evansville man is accused of drunkenly crashing into two vehicles and then fleeing the scene.

Police say it happened just before 3 a.m. Saturday at Columbia and Heidelberg.

They say 39-year-old Corey Littlepage was in the wrong lane when he crashed into a truck and then a van with two people inside.

They were not hurt.

Police say they knew it was Littlepage because of the license plate on his car.

Police say they used a drone to catch Littlepage, who was hiding a few blocks away.

Officers say he told them, “I’m fed up.”

Littlepage was taken to the hospital, where police say he yelled and cursed in front of several other patients, including a child.

They say he could not stand on his own and threatened the police several times.

His charges include intimidation, disorderly conduct, leaving the scene of an accident, resisting law enforcement and driving under the influence.
