Officials say an 18-year-old El Paso man, apparently angry about being asked to leave a gathering, drove his car into a crowd in a parking area. Two male teenagers were injured but are expected to recover.

The El Paso County sheriff's office said Sunday that a 17-year-old was pinned under the car and a 16-year-old was struck and suffered broken leg.

Witnesses said the driver in the early Saturday incident had to be forced out of the car so the 17-year-old could be pulled out from under it. The 17-year-old suffered bruising and internal injuries.

The driver was jailed on two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

What Our Clients Say

I came to Andrew after being rear ended in my car. This type of accident has happen to me ad nauseam since I've lived in Austin. It has caused serious problems for me. Usually i'm offered a paltry offering from the other person's insurance company. I decided to try using a lawyer this time around. Andrew took the case even though he thought that we might not get much from the insurance company, since I have been injured from too many of these accidents. He thought I deserved representation. I have been turned down by attorneys before. We got a nice settlement from the insurance company. It was quick and painless. Thank you Andrew.
