A snowplow operator will be sentenced in June, after being convicted of felony DUI for a crash that led the victim to lose a foot. 44-year-old Eric Christiansen was charged with one count of Driving Under the Influence after the March 2018 crash. He faces 20 years in prison. The Nevada Highway Patrol investigation indicated Christiansen was operating an N-DOT snow plow on State Route 431 when he crossed into the oncoming lane, causing the blade of the plow to hit a pickup driven by a Kings Beach man. The victim sustained an open fracture of his left leg and was taken to Renown Regional Medical Center where he had his foot amputated. The investigation determined Christiansen was under the influence of methamphetamine when the crash occurred.
