When you have been involved in an accident, you never expect life-changing results to happen to you. Everyday car accidents occur, so how would you expect to be the person who ends up with serious injuries that will follow you through the rest of your life? If this has happened to you, you might wonder if you have options.
A man was arrested this week after driving under the influence and causing a serious accident that left a victim with brain damage. The 32-year-old responsible for the accident was identified as Joseph Daniel Nipper. He was charged with DUI with damage to property and DUI with serious bodily injury to another.
The accident involved three vehicles and took place on Northwest 39th Avenue. When police arrived at the scene, they found Nipper inside his vehicle and a 75-year-old victim in another vehicle, who was admitted to intensive care with a brain bleed. The victim is still in serious condition.
Officers discovered an open cooler of beer inside Nipper’s vehicle. He had signs of impairment at the time.
