Myrtle Beach News

A fatal Myrtle Beach cycling accident claimed the life of one person and left another injured early Tuesday morning, January 1, 2019.

According to  WBTV.com, the cyclists were hit by an SUV on Highway 501 “near Conbraco Circle,” around 3:40 a.m. Tragically, one succumbed to fatal injuries. The surviving victim was transported to Conway Medical Center with injuries.

Another cyclist was struck and injured by a vehicle on “Highway 501…by Conbraco Circle” in September 2015, per WMBF reports. The incidents raise questions over street lighting and bicycle and pedestrian safety measures in the area.

Our Legal Take

As the details of this tragedy continue to develop, and if the driver is found to be at fault, the victim’s family may elect to file civil claims for their loss. Additionally, the surviving victim may also pursue claims for any injuries suffered.

Based upon its experience and success handling cycling accident cases, The Murray Law Firm suggests that the victim’s family should retain an experienced personal injury firm to protect their interests and ensure an unbiased investigation. Photographs of the vehicle and roadways involved and a review of traffic surveillance footage will need to be performed immediately before any evidence is damaged or destroyed.

Could this tragic Myrtle Beach shooting have been prevented?

Local News

Security measures are in question after a reported shooting claimed the life of Reginald Washington and left a 26-year-old Myrtle Beach man injured Friday morning, May 25, 2018.

According to ABC 15, gunfire broke out “at the Koyote Saloon off Highway 501,” around 3:00 a.m. Mr. Washington was transported to Grand Regional Medical, where he succumbed to fatal injuries. A second person was also transported to the hospital with gunshot wounds. His current condition has not been released.

The county has allegedly since revoked the property’s business licence, citing “an excessive amount of public safety issues and criminal activity,” per Myrtle Beach Sun News reports.

Our Legal Take

Bar and nightclub 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.

  • What additional security measures, such as weapons screenings, surveillance cameras, bright lighting, and security patrols, were implemented by the bar owner following media reports of prior criminal activity on property?

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 bar owner failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the family of Reginald Washington may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss. Additionally, the other victim of this shooting may 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 victims retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
