Comments
There are several errors in this article. There were 3 people including myself in my vehicle. Jonathon Case was in my vehicle, and was wearing his safety belt. He from Washburn, not Purdy. I had 2nd degree airbag burns on my right arm, so I sustained minor injuries. My front seat passenger who was not mentioned in the article was 24 year old Brandon Johnson, who also received minor injuries. All three of the people in my vehicle went to the Emergency Room. The "Butts" person that hit me did not have any insurance, so I am having having to pay for an accident I clearly did not cause. Please retrack these errors about Jonathon, he has already suffered enough through this nightmare.
