A pickup truck driver who struck and killed a jogger in Nebraska last year is now suing the victim's estate for emotional damages. Gavin Maas, 25, hit Anthony Miller in August 2025 while Miller was jogging with his wife, Bailey, in Lincoln.
According to police reports, Maas saw Bailey on the side of the road and moved to give her space but did not see Anthony until it was too late. Investigators cited the time of day and rainy weather as possible factors, and no citation was issued. Maas remained at the scene and attempted life-saving measures.
Maas has now filed a lawsuit against Anthony's estate seeking at least $50,000 in damages for emotional injuries and medical costs. Court records indicate Maas claims he suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder after the crash and was hospitalised on multiple occasions.
Anthony Miller, a nurse practitioner in acute care surgery, is survived by his wife Bailey and their two young daughters. Bailey described her husband as a devoted father who loved his family deeply. A colleague from the University of Nebraska Medical Center remembered him as a compassionate caregiver.
