On February 15th, at roughly 9:30 in the morning, people were gathering at the Lauderdale Lakes Auto Auction Lot at 3500 Northwest 21st Street. One of the vehicles up for auction, being driven by someone associated with the auction, suddenly accelerated in an erratic manner, striking people and other vehicles.
Seven known victims had to be taken to the hospital due to the severity of their injuries, with medics transporting two victims to an area hospital as trauma alert patients. There are potentially other currently unidentified victims.
At 10:15 A.M., Sky 10 News flew over the scene to report on the large crowd gathering around the deputies dispatched to investigate the crash. Witnesses report feeling traumatized from the ordeal after seeing the aftermath of the crash.
One of the victims have retained our law firm and we are pursuing justice on their behalf. We are currently investigating the crash. If you are a witness in the area or have photos or videos before and after the accident, we would greatly appreciate your help.
