FAYETTE COUNTY (KDKA) - The Fayette County District Attorney's son will spend six months in the county's Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition Program.

This comes after Richard Bower was admitted to the program after a wrong-way crash on Route 119 last August.

He crossed the centerline of the road and collided with another vehicle.

Police said Bower's blood-alcohol level was more than double the legal limit at the time of the crash. 

Should Bower finish the ARD program, the charges will be expunged from his record.
