A Galveston County couple filed suit against a driver after the husband lost a leg in an accident involving his motorcycle.
John Doiron and Pamela Doiron filed a complaint Sept. 26 in Galveston County District Court against Carla Deann McDonald, citing negligence.
According to the complaint, plaintiff John Doiron was driving his motorcycle in Galveston County on March 13, 2012.
