The driver refused to stop and led officers on a chase. During the pursuit, police attempted a vehicle containment maneuver, but the stolen vehicle hit a police car and kept going southbound on Slide Road. The fleeing vehicle then crashed into a passenger car that was turning west onto 54th Street.<\/p>\n<p>\nPerry Clark, 71, was driving the passenger car that was struck. He was transported to University Medical Center with serious injuries. The impact caused the stolen truck to flip multiple times before colliding with a telephone pole.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe driver of the stolen truck, a 28-year-old man, was taken to UMC with moderate injuries. Three other occupants were in the truck at the time of the incident.<\/p>\n<p>\nAdditional details of the incident were not immediately released.<\/p>\n<p>CRASH INVESTIGATION\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt is imperative to come to a determination of the exact cause of these types of accidents. An attorney has the resources to review applicable insurance coverage, hire expert witnesses, run background checks, and locate witnesses. We carefully guide the family of the victim through the process,\u201d said Candice Bond, a managing partner with Bond Legal.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe noted that in cases such as this it&#8217;s important to have an independent investigation conducted sooner than later to better preserve any evidence.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIn addition to a police report, an attorney will carefully review what may have contributed to the crash,\u201d said Bond. \u201cA lawyer has the resources to hire expert witnesses, conduct drivers\u2019 background checks, locate witnesses to the crash and review applicable insurance coverage. Serving as an advocate, an attorney can help guide an injury victim through what can be a complicated process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\nPerry Clark may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim, pending the results of the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\nStefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, said, \u201cInjured victims involved in a collision often seek a personal injury claim to cover the cost of medical bills, future medical care, loss of income, emotional trauma, and pain and suffering.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Insurance companies can be notoriously unconcerned with the mounting costs that an injured party may accrue. That&#8217;s where an attorney can help.
