Less than a week after a Megabus overturned on Interstate 65 north of Seymour, one of the passengers has filed a lawsuit.

Dyrell Lee of Hamilton, Georgia, filed the lawsuit last week against Coach Leasing Inc., Coach U.S.A. Inc., Megabus Southeast LLC and Megabus U.S.A. LLC in Cook County Circuit Court.

Chicago attorney Tom Zimmerman, who is representing Lee, said the woman is suing due to the personal injuries sustained during the crash, which resulted in financial damages including medical bills and lost wages.
