Man charged with OWI after striking a vehicle

A local driver allegedly struck a vehicle head-on after failing to yield at a left turn.

Cory Youngblut, 38, was charged with third-offense OWI after officers reportedly found him with bloodshot, watery eyes, dilated pupils, and smelling strongly of alcohol.

According to an Iowa City police complaint, Youngblut told officers he was drunk, and he had a blood-alcohol level of more than .08. He was previously convicted of OWI two other times.

Third-offense OWI is a Class-D felony.
