COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A Centralia man pleaded guilty to three felonies for a drunken October 2024 crash that killed a man.

Nathan Timpe pleaded guilty on Wednesday to driving while intoxicated that caused the death of another and two counts of DWI causing serious injury.

He was sentenced to 120 days of shock incarceration and can get probation at the end of it. He faces a 10-year prison sentence if he fails to complete the program or violates probation.

Timpe crashed his Jeep Wrangler in 2024 and had a blood alcohol content of .109, court documents in previous reporting say.

Riley Pipes, 19, was not wearing a seatbelt and was thrown from the Jeep. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
