ST. LOUIS – A driver alleges she sustained injuries to her neck and back when her vehicle was struck by an employee of a gas company.

Bianca Valentine filed a complaint on Dec. 20 in the St. Louis Circuit Court against Spire Gas Co. alleging negligence.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on Feb. 9, 2018, she was driving at the intersection of Compton Avenue and Vincent Street when the defendant's employee struck the passenger side of her vehicle while he was reversing his vehicle. She alleges she sustained injuries to her back and neck and was caused to suffer pain and suffering, mental anguish and lost wages. 

The plaintiff holds Spire Gas Co. responsible because the defendant's employee did not yield to the right of way, did not keep a proper lookout and did not maintain the vehicle in its proper lane of travel.

The plaintiff seeks compensatory damages greater than $25,000, with interest, costs and all other relief that is necessary and proper. She is represented by Benjamin J. Sansone of Sansone & Lauber in Clayton.
