A multi-vehicle car crash in a Memphis neighborhood left several people injured. This event occurred in the early evening of Jan. 21. Motor vehicle accidents involving numerous cars can do a lot of damage — not only to physical property but to the victims physically, and to them and their families emotionally and financially.

According to a recent news report, at approximately 4:30 p.m., a car struck a pole near the intersection of North Watkins and Witney Avenue. Police have not gone into any details, but three other vehicles were also involved. A total of five ambulances were called to the scene. The injured individuals were taken to various area hospitals including Le Bonnier Children’s Hospital and Methodist North. The current conditions of all those involved in this incident have not been reported.

The investigation into this accident is ongoing. It is unclear if any of the drivers are facing criminal charges for their involvement. The names of those involved in the event have not been released to the public.

Motor vehicle accidents, particularly those that result in injury can cost victims and their families a lot. The physical and emotional injuries can be difficult to overcome. For some individuals, such injuries may affect them for the rest of their lives. Under certain circumstances, the state of Tennessee allows victims of motor vehicle accidents to seek compensation for their losses so that they can get the assistance that they need to help them move forward. Those hurt in this particular event can turn to a Memphis-based personal injury attorney for assistance seeking fair and full compensation for their losses.
