HUNTINGTON — A Culloden resident is suing a regional bus service company and driver, alleging negligence caused a crash that injured the plaintiff.
Kathryn Wise filed a complaint in Cabell Circuit Court against the Tri-State Transit Authority and Tobias C. Newsome, alleging the defendant's vehicle collided with the plaintiff's pickup truck.
According to the complaint, on May 8, 2017, Wise was driving a 2015 GMC Canyon pickup truck on the Interstate Highway 64 ramp near milepost 28 in Cabell County when its rear was violently struck by a 2009 Ford E450 passenger van owned by the Tri-State Transit Authority and negligently driven by Newsome.
Wise seeks trial by jury, damages to adequately compensate for injuries she suffered, pre-judgment interest, post-judgment interest, court costs, attorney fees and all other just and proper relief. She is represented by attorney Kenneth P. Hicks of Huntington.
