Truck Company and driver found liable in accident resulting in TBI
Officer Brian McAchran of Buckeye, Arizona was responding to a call in March 2005 when a semi-truck operated by Knight Transportation blew through an intersection barreling into him and dragging him and his cruiser more that 200 feet. The former officer is still recovering from a traumatic brain injury and extensive damages to his face and head he incurred at the time of the accident. The former SWAT officer is unable to work as a police officer again. After almost three years of the accident an Arizona jury found the trucking company and their driver liable and awarded McAchran just over $3 million. The verdict will help Brian McAchran, his wife and two daughters cover his past and future medical expenses.
