HONOLULU, HI : Police open negligent injury case after major Windward Oahu crash involving tow truck on Wednesday, 12th June 2019

The 52-year-old woman who was driving a tow truck that plowed into 10 other cars Wednesday has dozens of traffic violations dating back a decade.
Police have opened a negligent injury case after the Windward Oahu crash, which left a 31-year-old man in critical condition and sent three others to the hospital in good to serious condition.
The tow truck involved in the crash was being driven for Pinky Tows Hawaii.
Records show that in the last eight months she has been cited for driving with a mobile electronic device, an invalid safety check, no vehicle insurance, and a limit on her commercial drivers license.
Police said the 2002 Kenworth tow truck she was driving was headed northbound at the Likelike Highway off-ramp to Kahekili Highway about 2:30 p.m. when its brakes apparently failed. Speed also appears to be a factor in the crash.
Sources tell Hawaii News Now that the tow truck was towing a vehicle over the weight limit.
On Thursday, family and friends identified the man in critical condition as Jim Braddock.
