A Cape Coral man faces DUI charges after authorities say he caused a three-vehicle crash that involved a rollover where he nearly quadrupled the blood-alcohol limit and caused nearly $24,000 in damage.

Korey Dickens, 34, faces one count of DUI and two counts of DUI with damage to property or another person.

According to Cape Coral police, it all began around 2 a.m. Monday, when officers responded to a rollover crash at the 2200 block of Del Prado Boulevard South.

Police said officers found a red Mercedes on its roof, heavily damaged. The driver of the vehicle, later identified as Dickens, had minor lacerations.

Authorities said Dickens was wearing a blue work shirt and black pants with no shoes or socks.
