Swingler was injured as was his passenger 29-year-old Phil Ruholl of Teutopolis.  Both were taken to St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital in Effingham for treatment.  Ruholl was transferred to Carle Hospital in Urbana for additional treatment.

Swingler was cited for DUI, operating an uninsured vehicle, improper lane usage and operating an ATV on a roadway.
