A motor vehicle accident involving two vehicles resulted in the death of one driver early Saturday morning, April 27, 2019.

According to 41NBC.com, “68 year old Nancy Skinner’s car was hit head on by a Jeep…[the jeep] crossed over the line on High Falls Road.” Macon.com is reporting “[Ms.] Skinner was in critical condition when deputies arrived but soon succumbed to her injuries.”  The accident investigation is ongoing, it is unclear at this time if the Jeep driver will face any charges according to the media reports.



Our Legal Take

As the details of this tragedy continue to develop, and depending on who is deemed to be at fault in causing the accident, the family of Nancy Skinner may elect to seek justice and file a civil claim for their loss.  Based upon its extensive experience and success handling these types of motor vehicle claims in Georgia, The Murray Law Firm suggests that Ms. Skinner’s family should retain an experienced personal injury firm to protect their interests and ensure an unbiased investigation. Photographs of the roadways and vehicles involved and a review of surveillance footage from nearby businesses or properties, if any exists, will need to be performed immediately before any evidence is damaged or destroyed.

Could the shooting at an Acworth gas station have been prevented and are justice and compensation available to the victim?

Local News

Gunfire erupted at a Acworth, Georgia gas station Sunday evening, April 28, 2019, leaving one person injured.  According to 11alive.com, “[t]he shooting happened at a [gas station] Food Mart in the 3400 block of Baker Road.”  AJC.com is reporting, “Acworth officers were called to the [gas station] by a witness who heard gunshots and saw someone run away from the victim’s vehicle, jump into another car and drive off…[t]he victim was found shot once and was taken to WellStar Kennestone Hospital, where he was in critical condition but stable Sunday.”  According to the news report, three suspects have been taken into custody.

Our Legal Take

Gas station and convenience store patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior violent incidents near or on the property?
  • What security measures, such as bright lighting, visible surveillance cameras and security patrols, were present to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?
  • Was there any suspicious activity reported prior to the shooting?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the property owner failed to provide adequate security to protect those on the premises, the victim may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his injuries.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
