Kelly Pavlik pleaded guilty last week to two lesser charges in a case in which he had been accused of driving an all-terrain vehicle while impaired, according to The Youngstown (Ohio) Vindicator. Pavlik, 30, pleaded guilty to one count of failure to control a vehicle and one count of failure to report an accident. Prosecutors dropped a count of operating a vehicle while impaired due to what Pavlik’s defense attorney told the newspaper was a lack of evidence, including no field sobriety or Breathalyzer tests.
