Kelly Pavlik, Canfield Court
an operating a vehicle while impaired charge against professional boxer Kelly Pavlik was dismissed in a Friday plea deal due to lack of evidence, Pavlik’s lawyer said in court. The former middleweight champion then pleaded guilty to two minor misdemeanors, failure to control a vehicle and failure to report an accident; and Judge Scott Hunter fined him $150 on each count and gave him 30 days to pay. The failure to report charge was a lesser charge that replaced an original charge of leaving the scene of an accident. Pavlik was arrested Dec. 21 near his Sugarbush Drive home after authorities said he and a friend wrecked two all-terrain vehicles on a neighboring property, destroying a lamppost and causing other damage.
