A 49-year-old Lindenwold man was charged with DWI and driving with a suspended license after an investigation into a violent wreck in Gloucester Township that sent three people to the hospital last month.

Emery Galiazzi, of the 100 block of 4th Avenue, was charged Friday with two counts of assault with a motor vehicle, under the influence of a narcotic, driving while intoxicated and for a suspended driver being involved in a motor vehicle crash with serious injuries.

The one-car wreck was reported shortly after 3:30 p.m. in the unit block of Coles Road near the Route 42 on-ramp on March 19. The car slammed into a utility pole, which came out of the ground.
