Norfolk Serious Personal Injury Lawyer Report – Three People are Airlifted After Car Flips over in Franklin, VA

An altercation outside a Wal-Mart in Franklin, VA appears to have been the catalyst that resulted in an accident that left three people seriously injured when a car flipped.

As an experienced Norfolk, VA car accident injury attorney, I am concerned to read about the details of this crash in which injured passengers or other parties may have a case for an action against the driver.

Nightingale Air Ambulance flew three people to the hospital on the afternoon of May 12, 2012 after their vehicle flipped over several times on Armory Drive in Franklin, WAVY.com reported.

Police said the driver of a 2002 Chrysler Seabring got involved in an altercation in the Wal-Mart parking lot, WAVY reported.

“The driver sped from the parking lot with a man and a woman inside the car,” according to WAVY.

The driver headed east on Armory Drive before events took a turn for the worst. He hit a curb in front of the Farm Fresh superstore, and the Chrysler flipped several times and ejected the driver as well as a female passenger.

WAVY reported that three victims were flown to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital. No details of the altercation were released.

Although the conditions of the victims are yet to be released, we are concerned their injuries were serious because they were airlifted to Norfolk. The thoughts of our Norfolk serious personal injury attorneys, are with the injured people.
