$5 Million lawsuit against drunk driver
June 16, 2007
New York bar bouncer Sean Basdavanos has filed a $5 million lawsuit against a "rich frat boy" drunk driver college student who allegedly tried to run him down after being ejected from a Long Island country-club bar.
The bouncer threw Sayed El-Waraky out of the Soundview Restaurant at the Glen Cove Golf Club on the night of June 18, 2006.
El-Waraky was convicted last month of misdemeanor DWI and leaving the scene of an accident that caused injuries, but the jurors could not agree on the more serious assault charges.
After the drunk driving conviction, Basdavanos wanted the DA to re-try El-Waraky on the assault charges.
Their theory: This was a spoiled rich frat boy with a bad attitude and a bad temper. Once he got into that eight-cylinder weapon, hell broke loose.
