Auto Accident in Pittsburgh, KS. Claims Life of Former Ruskin High School Coach

Monday evening, former Ruskin High School girl's basketball coach Tisharria Huggins was killed in an auto accident near Pittsburg, Kansas.  Huggins, 29, was heading south on 260th Road in Cherokee County when she ran a stop sign at K-171.  Huggins' vehicle, an Oldsmobile Alero, collided with a Honda Civic traveling eastbound on K-171.  Huggins was pronounced dead at the scene.  Two other victims, a 28-year-old passenger in Huggins vehicle and the 22-year-old driver of the Honda Civic were injured in the accident. 

Running a stop sign or any traffic signal can be extremely dangerous, as evidenced by this tragic accident.  At Roswold Law Group we would like to extend our deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Tisharria Huggins.  As Kansas City Auto Injury Attorneys, we know even the slightest distraction can cause a devastating accident.  This is a great opportunity to remind drivers to pay attention when behind the wheel. 

Cell phones, Ipods, radios/CD players are all great to have in a car, but also may cause a driver significant distraction and lead to fatal auto accidents.  Even other passengers can sometimes distract drivers.  As the weather in our area clears and more people are out on the road, let's all remember to focus at the task at hand when behind the wheel.  Your life may depend on it.
