Arkansas State Police troopers cited a Malvern man for driving the wrong way on Interstate 30 in Little Rock and causing a crash Friday morning, according to state police spokesman Bill Sadler.
Ivan Barker, 41, was arrested and taken to the Pulaski County jail, where he was released, according to a jail employee.
The 2016 Cadillac Escalade, driven by Barker, reportedly traveled east in the westbound lanes of I-30 around 4 a.m., forcing one vehicle to swerve to avoid collision and end up in a ditch near 65th Street. Barker's SUV collided with a second vehicle near the I-30 and I-530 interchange, according to Sadler.
Barker has been charged with reckless driving, driving while intoxicated, refusal to submit to chemical test and failure to give info and render aid.
