Dean Hancock, father of the late Josh Hancock, has decided to file a lawsuit against Mike Shannon’s, a popular club where Josh had been on the night before his eventual death.
Mr. Hancock is suing the restaurant because they failed to stop serving drinks to Josh. Mr. Hancock is also suing Shannon’s daughter, who is the restaurant’s manager. He also named the tow truck company, the tow truck driver, and the driver of the broken down car.
Josh was found to be drunk at the time of his death. Hence the lawsuit.
I can understand suing the restaurant but why is he suing the tow truck company, tow truck driver and the driver of the car. If anything, I can see a counter-suit happening by those parties.
Hat tip to my buddy Shelto for the tip.
