Car accident 31

ST. LOUIS — Three motorist are suing the City of St. Louis, alleging negligence.

Shevron Lewis, Sheilah Barnett and Nathan McDaniel filed a complaint on Dec. 26 in the St. Louis Circuit Court against the City of St. Louis alleging that the government entity failed to maintain an electronic signaling device. 

According to the complaint, the plaintiffs allege that on July 14, 2015 they were in a motor vehicle traveling southbound on North Broadway and another motorist, Ariana Evans, who was going eastbound on Riverview entered the intersection and collided with their car.  Both drivers stated that they had a green light. The plaintiffs allegedly suffered bodily injuries and damages. 

The plaintiffs hold the City of St. Louis responsible because the defendant allegedly failed to fixed the signal problem in a timely manner.

The plaintiffs request a trial by jury; and seek judgment against the defendant in an amount of more than $50,000, plus costs of this action, and all further relief as the court may deem just and proper. They are represented by Marc K. Gnade of Law Offices of Marc Gnade LLC in Fenton, Missouri.
