A North Liberty man has been accused of resisting an officer while intoxicated.

Darnell Young, 20, North Liberty, was charged Wednesday with assault causing injury against a peace officer or others and interference with official acts causing bodily injury.

According to an Iowa City police complaint, police officials observed a beige Nissan Maxima with an Iowa license plate driving westbound on Hollywood Boulevard from Dolphin Lake.

The driver pulled into the first driveway on the north side of the street, and when an officer pulled up, Young exited the vehicle and approached the door.

After police officials completed a brief field interview, Young reportedly ignored multiple requests to comply with officer’s requests and eventually attempted to flee.

Shortly after, police officials located Young a short time later in an apartment at Dolphin Lake.
