Weatherford Man Awarded $6 Million For Injuries In Accident

WACO, Texas (AP) - A federal jury in Waco has awarded six million dollars to a man critically injured when his motorcycle collided with a tractor-trailer.

Jurors found Colonial Freight Systems of Knoxville, Tennessee, and its driver, Julie Renee Collins of Kentucky, at fault for the March 2006 accident.

Fifty-5-year-old Walter Browning of Weatherford was riding on Interstate 35 near Waco.

The lawsuit said Collins changed lanes, with the rig striking Browning and knocking him off his motorcycle.

His attorneys say Browning lost four fingers on his left hand and can no longer walk without assistance because of injuries to his left leg.

Jurors rejected the defendant's version that Browning entered an entrance ramp and drove directly into the big rig.
