Authorities say William Dunbar was driving northbound on Rt. 73 in August when he crashed into the back of a vehicle driven northbound by Christopher Pappas, 34, of Howell. Pappas's vehicle overturned and crashed into a utility pole. 

Pappas was pronounced dead at the scene. 

Charges against Pappas were filed after the release of results of toxicology tests on blood drawn from Dunbar after the crash.
