Good evening, North Carolina. A devastating wrong-way crash that claimed a young life nearly two years ago is now the subject of a wrongful death lawsuit against an Asheville bar.

Nearly two years after a wrong-way crash tragically claimed the life of a 21-year-old Durham man, his parents have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against an Asheville bar. The legal action alleges that the establishment bears responsibility related to the driver who caused the fatal incident.

The parents are seeking justice and compensation, alleging negligence on the part of the bar for allegedly overserving the driver responsible for the crash. While specific details of the allegations will unfold in court, the suit typically seeks damages for emotional distress, loss of companionship, and financial burdens resulting from their son’s untimely death.
