Supervisors settle man’s injury claim
Supervisors on Tuesday awarded $975,000 to a man who alleges he suffered serious injuries after a bicycle accident on a county road.
Poor signage and dangerous road conditions caused David LeBarron to fall off his bicycle into a catch basin on Crown Valley Road in the Antelope Valley in May 2004.
He fractured his skull and suffered a severe concussion and hemorrhaging, according to a lawsuit filed in 2005.
The settlement was proposed by a mediator.
