GARRETT COUNTY JURY AWARDS NEARLY $417,000 TO CRASH VICTIM

A Garrett County Jury has awarded a 78-year-old Addison, Pennsylvania man $416,884, as the result of a crash with a lumber truck in 2024. The unidentified plaintiff was riding a motorcycle in Garrett County, when a lumber truck, owned by G & G Lumber turned in front of him, causing a collision. He sustained a fractured arm, which, according to his attorneys, has caused him permanent pain and discomfort. He had previously declined a settlement of $75,000, before the jury ultimately awarded him more than five times that amount, according to the Cumberland Times-News.
