“As a result, plaintiffs were knocked to the ground and sustained severe bodily injuries,” the complaint reads.
A detective for the Los Angeles Police Department told TheWrap that the incident was a standard traffic collision, and it was determined that no crime had been committed.
A spokeswoman for Shaw had no comment on the lawsuit.
Claiming wage loss, loss of use of property, hospital and medical expenses, general damage loss of earning capacity and other damage, the pair are seeking unspecified compensatory damages according to proof.
