BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2023 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A lawsuit just filed in Palm Beach County Circuit Court claims that the City of Boca Raton is responsible for a crash that occurred outside the city limits. The crash, on March 9th, 2023, allegedly left a woman critically injured.
According to the suit, Plaintiff Rebecca Riggenbach was driving her 2017 Hyundai Sonata westbound on Atlantic Avenue when Aaron Aderly, driving a freight truck owned by the City of Boca Raton, failed to correctly merge, causing a crash into Riggenbach’s car. Another driver, Eddie Brown — also driving a City of Boca Raton freight truck — crashed into Riggenbach’s car as well.
