GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - We're learning more about last month's drunk driver who slammed into a Green Bay pub and injured three people.
50-year-old Lanard F. Hollenquest is charged with seven counts including 3 for second offense OWI causing injury, injury by intoxicated use of a vehicle and second offense OWI.
According to the criminal complaint, Green Bay police were called just before midnight on May 20 to Karen's Pub at 324 N. Roosevelt Street for a vehicle that drove into the building and hit people outside.
Officers arrived to find a gold colored car up against the west entryway into Karen's Pub. A bouncer pointed out to officers that a black man, later identified as Lanard F. Hollenquest, was the driver of the car. Other bystanders also pointed out Hollenquest as the alleged suspect.
Hollenquest allegedly tried walking away, and one cop fearing he might escape, placed him under arrest. Hollenquest apparently tried resisting, but was unable to avoid having handcuffs placed on him.
One of the women seen by authorities had a severe leg injury. An officer noted that, "Her right leg was torn open and he could clearly see her bones and flesh and tissue were hanging onto the bone."
A man had used his belt and placed it around her leg as a temporary tourniquet, per the complaint.
Another woman was lying on her stomach, while a third woman who tried running inside when the car approached was thrown into the pool table.
A bouncer at Karen's Pub told police that he was standing right behind the bar at the west end of the building where he heard tires screech. "All of a sudden it was like bam, people were flying," the bouncer stated.
The bouncer told one officer that he allegedly, "Saw the driver was trying to shift gears and he ran out the back door. He opened the driver's side door of the car and told the driver he wasn't going anywhere."
The complaint reads that the bouncer described the driver as a black male with a thin build, wearing a gray t-shirt. The bouncer then reached over and pulled the keys out of the ignition and that the driver got out of the car saying, "Give me the keys."
The driver allegedly wanted to leave and tried swinging at him. A passenger inside the vehicle was described as a heavier set black female wearing a white tank top. She had been taken to a hospital for injuries.
An officer went to meet with the passenger, and she allegedly muttered that the driver was, "Lanard." She also stated she remembered turning a corner and hitting a building. Upon impact, she said she felt pain in her tailbone and her head.
Meantime, Hollenquest was placed in the back of a squad car. Officers there said, "His speech was slurred, his eyes were glassy and red and he could smell the odor of intoxicating beverages."
"The defendant stated that he had been drinking prior to driving," according to the complaint.
Officers allegedly had Hollenquest perform some field sobriety tests, which he failed. Submitting to a preliminary breath test, the results came back that Hollenquest had a .197. A check of Hollenquest's record revealed that he is subject to mandatory minimums after being convicted of OWI on March 19, 2014 for an offense the month before.
Hollenquest remains in the Brown County Jail on a $25,000 bond. A future court date, per online court records, has not been set.
