A Liberty woman is facing DUI charges following a two-vehicle injury accident.

Casey County Deputies Austin Harris and Jacob Atwood responded to the scene on KY 698, about ten miles northeast of Liberty, on Friday evening, shortly before 7 p.m. They found a truck with significant front-end damage and two passengers, one of whom required EMS for a head injury.

The other vehicle, a 2006 Dodge Charger driven by Samantha Duff, was located approximately 200 feet away. Duff, who appeared glassy-eyed and avoided eye contact, admitted to driving too fast and having bad brakes, causing her to collide with the truck.

Deputies detected the smell of alcohol, and Duff failed field sobriety tests. She was arrested and taken to Casey County Hospital for a blood test. A search of her vehicle revealed marijuana. Samantha J. Duff, 34 of Liberty, was charged with DUI-aggravated circumstance, possession of marijuana, and wanton endangerment-1st degree.

The injured passenger from the truck was airlifted due to the severity of her injuries.
