BECKLEY — A man is suing a driver, alleging his car was backed into and he was then attacked.
Steven Cheuvront filed a complaint in Raleigh Circuit Court against New Prime Inc. and Brandon Fowler.
The suit states that the plaintiff was parked in his vehicle on May 23, 2017 and the West Virginia State Police informed the plaintiff to move the vehicle and trailer off of the berm once the vehicles blocking Interstate 77 were moved off the the roadway. The plaintiffs were prepared to move their vehicle when the defendant allegedly backed his 2017 Peterbilt Truck Tractor into the plaintiff's vehicle, damaging it. The lawsuit claims the defendant then proceeded to attack the plaintiff without provocation.
The defendant is accused of negligence.
The plaintiff is seeking all reasonable sums due, attorney fees and court costs.
Raleigh Circuit Court case number 19-C-219
