Man Fleeing From Police Causes Serious Automobile Accident
A man fleeing from police on the 29th of March caused a very serious automobile accident when he crashed into a bus stop, injuring several people in the process. According to people who saw the accident, one of the victims had his leg cut off as a result. Police eventually caught up to the man after he tried to get away on foot.
36-year-old Anthony Friel faces several charges resulting from this crash. The incident originally occurred when Friel tried to get away from police when they tried to stop him after he ran a red light. One of the victims in the incident was in critical condition following the accident. After a high-speed chase, Friel then collided with a commercial truck before hitting the bus stop.
According to the report, Friel was charged with eluding police with a motor vehicle and several vehicle offenses. Friel could face several other charges depending on how serious the victims’ injuries were following the accident. This is one of many aspects that most people do not realize when they try to evade police. People constantly try to avoid getting ticketed for speeding and attempt to get away from police without thinking that their actions could bring about much harsher punishments against them. Many witnesses stated that the victims suffered extremely serious injuries. This could work against Friel in regard to the charges that could be placed against him. However, since Friel blatantly attempted to get away from police and seriously injured at least three people, he should be brought to justice on behalf of those he injured.
