Orange County, FL (June 25, 2019) - A man was hospitalized following a crash with an Orlando police officer on Sunday, June 23rd.
Troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol responded to the scene at the intersection of Westmoreland Drive and Michigan Street around 9:50 p.m. According to reports, officer Christopher Moulton was turning left onto Westmoreland from Michigan when the front of his vehicle collided with a Nissan driven by 60-year-old Michael Hagans. Hagans sustained a neck injury in the crash and was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center. Moulton sustained a minor injury to his left arm.
Both men were wearing their seatbelts when the crash took place. An investigation remains ongoing.
Each year in Florida, about 250,000 injury accidents will take place. When you have been hurt in a crash, it is important to protect your legal rights. You will likely receive calls from the insurance company in the aftermath of the crash. Many companies will request that you settle your claims quickly and cheaply, often for far less than what the case is worth. You should never accept any settlement offer without first speaking to an experienced attorney.
