PITTSBURGH,None — A Kennedy Township police officer accused of hitting and critically injuring a man while driving drunk on West Carson Street last month will not be charged with leaving the scene of an accident, according to Allegheny County District Attorney Stephen Zappala.
Zappala toured the crash scene Monday and said he determined that Frank Caliguiri will not face additional charges for leaving the scene because he returned after the accident.
According to police, Caliguiri's blood alcohol content was 0.126 percent at the time of the accident. The legal limit for drivers is 0.08 percent.
Justin McFadden, 22, had brain surgery last week. His family said that he is showing signs of improvement at the hospital.
Caliguiri faces DUI charges.
