A Greenbank man will serve time in prison for driving while intoxicated, causing an injury accident on South Whidbey and then fleeing the scene last year.

Brian Shelley, 42, is appealing a separate DUI conviction from Island County District Court, according to court documents.

Following a three-day trial in March, a jury in Island County Superior Court found Shelley guilty of vehicular assault and hit and run with injury.

Superior Court Judge Alan Hancock sentenced Shelley to four years and nine months in prison.

On May 16, 2013, Shelley was driving at a high rate of speed on Ewing Road in Clinton, crossed the centerline and struck an oncoming car.

He left the scene.

The driver and passenger of the other car were injured and transported to a hospital for treatment.

A portable breathalyzer measured Shelley’s blood-alcohol level at 0.091 percent, according to court documents.

Legal intoxication is .08 percent in Washington state.
