HARBESON, Del. - A Lewes man is facing DUI and felony charges after Delaware State Police say he caused a three-car crash in Harbeson that left two people seriously hurt.

The crash happened around 3:45 p.m. on Oct. 31 on Hollymount Road near Scottie Run. According to DSP, a Cadillac CT4 driven by 64-year-old Timothy Wolak was headed east when it crossed the center line and sideswiped a Dodge Durango traveling west. The Cadillac then struck the front of a Dodge Charger that had been driving behind the Durango.

Troopers said Wolak showed several signs of impairment at the scene and was taken to an area hospital with serious injuries. A 26-year-old woman from Laurel who had been driving the Charger was flown to the hospital by the Delaware State Police Aviation Section with serious injuries. The 32-year-old Georgetown woman driving the Durango was not hurt.
