Clearwater, FL (July 19, 2018) – When you think of accidents, you might think of those that happen on our roadways, but sometimes they take place in other areas. Because every accident is different, you need a legal advocate on your side for when you have been injured.
In Pinellas County, one man was arrested following a forklift incident when he used the forklift to stop his girlfriend from walking away after an argument. The man who was arrested was identified as 67-year-old Colin Showard. He got into an argument on the day in question with his girlfriend, Crystal Grimes.
Grimes attempted to leave in a vehicle, which is when Showard got into a forklift and pinned the vehicle up against a bus. When police came to the scene, Showard admitted to the crime and said that he wanted Grimes to leave his car behind.
Grimes was taken to the hospital with a back injury. Showard was arrested.
