An Oregon teen who lost his leg in a car wreck is suing the driver who crashed into him — along with the Salem brewery accused of over-serving the driver- for $3.5 million.
James Holland Jr., along with his parents, filed the negligence complaint against Jared Wayne Jones and Vagabond Brewing. The complaint says Jones was drinking at Vagabond Dec. 26, 2018, when he drove from Salem.
The then 16-year-old Holland was parked on the side of the road after his car broke down and was standing with friends when they were struck by Jones.
Jones pleaded guilty to DUI and assault and was sentenced to nine months in jail.
Management with Vagabond Brewing did not immediately respond to request for comment.
