Greenville, NC (January 16, 2023) - Monday night just after midnight, Greenville Police Department responded to a call of a car crashing into an apartment complex in Greenville, North Carolina. Upon arriving at the scene, officers found that a Nissan Maxima had crashed into an apartment at The District at Tar River complex. The driver of the vehicle, 25-year-old Aveon Isaiah Collins-Smith, was found to have been shot in the chest before crashing his car. Despite life-saving measures administered on the scene, Collins-Smith died at ECU Medical Health Center.
The resident of the apartment, Caleb White, was also taken to the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. White recounted that he was in his living room when he first heard gunshots and then the car crashing into his apartment, knocking out the lights. He was able to crawl to his front door and call the police. White was quoted as saying, "The smoke in the living room, I couldn't really tell what was going on and I didn't know if the car was going to blow up or if something was going to catch on fire. I was just asking the people above me to call for help and call the police because I couldn't even assess how injured I was."
Criminal Investigation is Ongoing
The incident is believed to be a targeted attack. Police stated that they have received information that the shooting is not a random act and they are investigating it as a targeted attack.
Due to the damage caused by the crash, both the downstairs and upstairs apartments are not habitable. Jordon Spelce, manager of the apartment complex, said they have found housing for both tenants. The police department continues to investigate the incident and is urging anyone with information to come forward.
At Rosensteel Fleishman we express our deepest condolences to the victims of this accident and their loved ones, and wish for their speedy recovery. We stand ready to help them through this difficult time.
Personal Property Damage in Car Accidents
Car accidents not only result in personal injuries from physical harm, but they can also cause significant damage to personal property. This can include damage to vehicles, as well as damage to any personal items that may have been in the car.
Vehicle Damage
Damage to a vehicle can range from minor dings and scratches to complete destruction. In some cases, the cost of repairs may exceed the value of the vehicle, making it a total loss. This can be a significant financial burden for the vehicle owner, who may have to purchase a new car or pay for costly repairs.
Personal Property Damage
In addition to damage to the vehicle, as in this case personal property can also be damaged in a car accident. This can include anything from clothing and electronics, to jewelry and other valuables. The cost to replace or repair these items can add up quickly, and the emotional loss of sentimental items can be devastating.
Compensation for Personal Property Damage
It is important to know that victims of car accidents may be entitled to compensation for personal property damage. This can include reimbursement for the cost of repairs or replacement of a damaged vehicle, as well as compensation for any personal items that were damaged or destroyed in the accident.
