Harry Dougherty and Ann Dougherty v. Jean Carrano: A man’s vacation in Westbrook was ruined after a car smashed head-on into his vehicle, breaking his hip and ankle and eventually leading to a heart attack. His lawsuit ultimately went to arbitration, and he and his wife were awarded $2.8 million.
On July 31, 2009, Harry Dougherty, 65, of Meriden, was vacationing with his, wife, Ann, at a cottage her family owns in the Long Island Sound shoreline town. The couple had been at a self-service laundry, and at about lunchtime Doughtry decided to head back to the cottage.
