Man accused of theft, chase among 28 indicted

By KENNETH HART
The Independent

CATLETTSBURG A man accused of stealing a car in Ashland, then leading police on a chase before crashing the vehicle in Catlettsburg, was among 28 defendants indicted Friday by a Boyd County grand jury.

David E. Nichols, 52, of Catlettsburg, was charged with felony theft, fleeing or evading police and first-degree wanton endangerment.

The charges stem from an incident that occurred July 21. According to the Ashland Police Department, Nichols and another man, Timothy Ward, took off in a 2001 Ford Mustang that Deborah Thomas of Ashland had just driven to her grandmother’s house on Herman Avenue.

A witness who saw two men get into the car and take off said the driver appeared to be intoxicated.

A description of the stolen vehicle was broadcast to area law enforcement agencies. A Catlettsburg police officer spotted the car and pursued it for a short distance before it crashed into a utility pole near the intersection of U.S. 23 and 34th Street.

Nichols and Ward were both ejected from the vehicle and were taken by helicopter to Cabell Huntington Hospital.

A grand jury indictment is a formal accusation of a crime and does not establish guilt.
