Pedestrian Struck By a Rental Car in Connecticut Wins a $1.3 Million Settlement

A 46-year-old city woman who was run over and injured while walking on a West Main Street sidewalk has won a $1.375 million settlement from a car rental company.

Wishtecha Doroshenko, a former security guard at Foxwoods, won the settlement from CAMRAC LLC as her lawsuit was scheduled to go to trial in May in New London Superior Court. State records show CAMRAC is the company name that does business as Enterprise-Rent-A-Car, which has a location in Norwich.

On Aug. 15, 2019, Doroshenko was on a sidewalk in front of Colonial Car Wash at 577 W. Main St. when she was hit and run over by a Hyundai Santa Fe driven by former CAMRAC employee Isaiah Mims, court records show. Mims had washed the vehicle and was pulling out of the car wash parking lot onto West Main Street when the accident occurred. The lawsuit had claimed “negligence and carelessness” on the part of Mims and CAMRAC.
