Man hit by drunk driver in Malta settles court action (via RTE)

A 70-year-old man who was catastrophically injured three years ago after he was knocked down by a drunk driver while on holidays in Malta has settled his High Court action for just over €3 million.

David Cooley from Youghal in Co Cork, was struck by a car on the first night of his holiday in April 2019.

He suffered multiple fractures and a severe brain injury, which means he requires round-the-clock care and has had to remain in hospital ever since.
