An electrician who was injured in a traffic accident has been awarded $2 million by a jury. According to a report from the Newnan Times-Herald, Jeffrey Waldrop sustained a knee injury when his vehicle struck a tractor-trailer that had turned into his lane of traffic.
The accident happened in LaGrange, Ga., two years ago, and a jury in U.S. District Court last month ruled in Waldrop's favor. The electrician had torn ligaments and cartilage in his knee, a fractured tibia, broken teeth and injuries to a thumb.
