A Bend-area man was arrested by Oregon State Police (OSP) Sunday following a two-vehicle minor injury crash south of Sunriver in which alcohol was determined to be a contributing factor. Both drivers were treated and released for minor injuries in the crash that occurred on Vandervert Road about one-half mile west of Highway 97.

According to OSP Sergeant Mitch Meyer, on February 14, 2010 at approximately 11:00 a.m. a 2004 Audi driven by CARLSON F. O'NEILL, age 32, from Bend, was traveling behind a 2002 Chevrolet Suburban driven by RENEE S. ROGERS, age 31, from Sunriver, westbound on Vandervert Road. O'NEILL was beginning an attempt to pass the Chevrolet Suburban at a high rate of speed in a no passing zone when it collided into the rear of the Suburban.

After impact, ROGERS was able to safely stop her vehicle. O'NEILL drove off the roadway and crashed into a tree on the south shoulder area.

ROGERS and O'NEILL were both transported to St. Charles Medical Center in Bend with minor injuries. Both were treated and released. Three passengers in the Chevrolet were not injured.

After being released from the hospital, OSP arrested O'NEILL for DUII, Assault in the Fourth Degree, and four counts of Recklessly Endangering Another Person. He was lodged in the Deschutes County Jail.
