(KNZA)--Formal charges have been filed against a Bellevue, Nebraska man in connection with a two-vehicle injury wreck last week in Brown County, just south of Hiawatha.

According to court documents, a criminal complaint was filed Tuesday in Brown County District Court charging 38-year-old William Bundy with 9 counts.

Bundy was charged with felony counts of aggravated battery and interference with law enforcement. In addition, he was charged with one count of battery on a law enforcement officer, one count of driving under the influence, two counts of battery on a healthcare provider and three drug possession charges, all misdemeanors.

Bundy made his first appearance in a Brown County courtroom Wednesday on the charges. A preliminary hearing was set for August 21st.

Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, in a release, said deputies responded to the report of an injury wreck in the vicinity of US 73 Highway and 220th Road on July 2nd.

Following an investigation, Merchant said it was determined that Bundy was driving a pickup truck that crossed the center line and struck a car.

Both drivers were transported by ambulance to Amberwell Health, in Hiawatha, with non-life threatening injuries.

Bundy was taken into custody after being released from the hospital and was booked into the Brown County Jail.

He was released July 5th after posting a $30,000 bond.
