A 48-year-old man is facing drunk driving charges in Attleboro after a hit-and-run car accident at Hillside Avenue and Park Street, according to the Sun Chronicle.
Christopher L. Cokonis, of 711 Hillside Drive, is accused of crashing head-on into a car at the intersection, while turning from Park Street onto Hillside Avenue. Police report that the 50-year-old driver of the other vehicle was not seriously injured.
