A Proctorville man who caused a traffic accident that injured three children and two adults will spend four years in prison.

Judge Charles Cooper sentenced Houston McClung, 34, of 14542 State Route 7, to four years in prison for aggravated vehicular assault, driving with a suspended license, operating a vehicle while intoxicated and disobeying a traffic control device.

In September, McClung’s vehicle failed to stop at a stop sign at the intersection of State Route 7 and State Route 217. His vehicle struck a vehicle driven by Rachel A. Bailey, 29, of Acworth, Ga., who was driving northbound on State Route 7.

All five occupants of Bailey’s car, including three children under the age of 10, were taken to the emergency room of Cabell Huntington Hospital. Bailey was treated and released.

Lawrence County Assistant Prosecutor Brigham Anderson said McClung had tested at three times the legal limit of blood alcohol content.

Cooper also ordered McClung to pay restitution in the amount of $19,980, fines of $650 and a six-months driver’s license suspension.
