Man in critical condition following rear-end collision in Tulsa
TULSA, OK – A man was left in critical condition as a result of a rear-end collision in Tulsa last Tuesday, April 14, News9 reports.
The collision happened in a construction zone, although the specific crash location was not disclosed. The man’s wife told the source that her husband was inside his car when he was rear-ended by a driver going 71 miles per hour, and claimed the driver did not press on his brakes.
The woman hired an Oklahoma personal injury attorney, who said the driver remained at the scene, was not accused of impairment, and was not arrested. Police cited the driver, but have since pulled that citation while the male victim remains hospitalized at St. Francis Hospital in Tulsa. He underwent spinal surgery, but is in a coma with limited brain activity.
Now, the male victim’s wife, is looking to pursue a personal injury lawsuit against the accused driver, who was also involved in a fatal fiery collision that claimed the lives of a child and two adults in 1994, according to an archived story published by The Oklahoman.
