BILLINGS — A Livingston woman has filed a complaint seeking damages for the alleged emotional trauma she suffered from finding part of a man’s face in a car wash after he was struck and killed by a semitrailer.

The Billings Gazette reports Kimberly Kriege’s suit filed in November against trucking company CRST Expedited Inc. has been moved to federal court in Butte.

In 2013, David Welk was driving for the company when he hit and killed 81-year-old pedestrian, Elgie Bedford.

Welk, who was convicted of the crime, left the scene. Investigators reported Bedford’s body was run over by several subsequent vehicles.

Kriege claims the man’s face ended up on her vehicle after she discovered it at a car wash.

Lawyers for CRST have said the company isn’t responsible for any damages.
