A former Vernon resident, who broke his leg after falling on a deteriorated walkway in his apartment complex that was covered up by an accumulation of snow and ice, has settled his lawsuit for $350,000.

According to the lawsuit filed in October 2017 in Tolland Superior Court, 41-year-old Jason Trimmer fell on the cracked walkway which, because it was covered in snow, “was not visible to pedestrians.” Trimmer, the lawsuit said, suffered injuries to his left leg, left knee and left hip. The incident occurred in January 2015 at 155 W. Main St. in Vernon.
