OLEAN – A man was arrested for allegedly driving while intoxicated following a hit-and-run crash on Delevan Avenue in Olean Monday.

New York State Police say Richard Kehler, 43, of Olean, fled the scene prior to trooper’s arrival.

Police report Kehler was later located at his residence where he allegedly refused a standardized field sobriety test.


Kehler was then arrested and transported to the State Police Barracks in Olean, where troopers say he refused to submit to a chemical breath test.

Police say he was released with appearance tickets for Olean City Court, where he is due to appear later this month.
