What Happened

Harris County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested a man after he allegedly struck his neighbor with a truck at an RV park in east Harris County. The incident appears to have stemmed from a dispute between the two neighbors. The suspect was taken into custody following the incident. The victim was struck by the vehicle, raising potential personal injury liability. Cases involving intentional vehicle assaults may support both criminal and civil claims against the responsible party.

Being deliberately struck by a vehicle is a traumatic experience that can leave victims with serious physical injuries, medical bills, lost income, and lasting emotional harm. When the person who hurt you is a neighbor, the situation can feel even more disorienting, combining physical pain with a profound sense of violated safety in a place that should have felt like home.

After an intentional vehicle assault, victims often face an immediate flood of decisions: medical treatment, dealing with law enforcement, and trying to understand what legal options exist. Many people do not realize that a criminal arrest does not automatically protect a victim's right to financial recovery for their losses. A separate civil claim may be necessary, and time limits under Texas law apply.

Texas law: In Texas, personal injury victims generally have two years from the date of the incident to file a civil lawsuit, as established under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003. When an injury results from an intentional act rather than mere negligence, Texas law may allow claims for actual damages as well as other categories of damages recognized under state law. Texas also follows a modified comparative fault rule, meaning that liability and recovery can be affected by the degree of fault assigned to each party involved.

Questions

Can I file a civil lawsuit even if the suspect has already been arrested?

Yes. A criminal case and a civil personal injury case are separate legal proceedings in Texas. A criminal arrest or conviction does not prevent a victim from pursuing their own civil claim for damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

How long do I have to take legal action in Texas?

Texas law generally gives personal injury victims two years from the date of the incident to file a lawsuit. Missing this deadline can bar you from recovering compensation, which is why it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

What kinds of damages can a personal injury victim pursue after an intentional vehicle assault?

Under Texas law, injured victims may be able to pursue compensation for medical bills, lost income, future medical care, physical pain, emotional distress, and other losses connected to the incident. The specific damages available depend on the facts of each case.
