193rd District representative says relieved that actions did not cause injury to himself or others
Lackawanna County judge finds not guilty in March traffic incident
Auto accident and DUI charge leads to decision.
Rep. Torren Ecker (R-Adams/Cumberland) is under investigation for suspected driving under the influence after a car crash Tuesday night.
Pennsylvania State Police report that Ecker, 37, crashed a 2020 Honda Accord into a guide rail on the 7900 block of Carlisle Pike (Route 94) in Huntington Township in Adams County.
Ecker, who was a key proponent in the Republican effort to remove Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner from office, was driving south at 11:48 p.m. when the Honda drifted into the guide rail, causing the car to become disabled.
“Alcohol was a factor in this crash. Investigation continues,” the state police said in the report, which was released Wednesday.
The 37-year-old Ecker, who represents the 193rd District, said, “Most importantly, I am relieved that my lack of judgment did not result in any injury to others or myself. I take responsibility for my actions. To my family, constituents, and colleagues, I am deeply sorry for my irresponsible behavior and ask for your forgiveness.
“As this process moves forward, I will accept accountability and seek to restore the trust so many have put in me.”
The state police on Thursday said the results of a blood test are pending and could take several weeks to complete.
