Drunken and reckless driving charges were filed early today against Edward Gray, a Frederick area resident, after a collision on Buckeystown road. Gray was released on his own recognizance for a Peoples Court hearing scheduled July 3.

A separate case, theft of a plow against Gur Otter of Emmitsburg, was postponed in July due to the absence of the State's Attorney. Otter was arrested by Deputy Sheriff John E Crum.
