Lawsuit blames Tiger Woods for drunken driver’s death

-

The parents of a drunken driver who died in a car crash last year are suing Tiger Woods. They blame the golfer and his girlfriend for allowing their son to drive home from their Florida restaurant while intoxicate­d.

The wrongful death lawsuit filed Monday says Nicholas F. Immesberge­r was served excessive amounts of alcohol before the Dec. 10 car crash.

Immesberge­r worked at The Woods restaurant in Jupiter that Woods owns. His girlfriend, Erica Herman, is general manager.

The lawsuit says Herman recruited Immesberge­r as a bartender despite knowing that he was an alcoholic. It alleges that the restaurant’s employees, managers and owners allowed the 24-year-old man to drive after being over-served alcohol.
