A Gwinnett County jury delivered a post-apportioned award of more than $5.6 million to the family of a motorcyclist killed when he was hit by a van on Interstate 285 and slid beneath a truck.

Retired U.S. Navy veteran Frederick Fennell Jr., 65, died at the scene after being tapped and overturned by a Charter Communications van. His girlfriend, Teresa Wilson, was also thrown from the bike and suffered two broken arms and other injuries, according to the complaint and plaintiffs attorney Ketan Patel of Tyrone’s Corpus Law.
