Former FedEx Driver Sues Company, Alleged Attackers for $5M

D’Monterrio Gibson claims FedEx forced him to return to the route where he was allegedly shot at and chased, leading to emotional distress.

D’Monterrio Gibson, a Black former FedEx driver, has filed a $5 million lawsuit against FedEx and two white men, Gregory and Brandon Case, who he alleges shot at his van and chased him.
The incident occurred on January 24, 2022, in Brookhaven, Mississippi. Gibson was not injured, but the experience caused him 'depression, stress, anxiety, loss of sleep, and emotional pain and suffering.'
The Cases are charged with attempted first-degree murder, conspiracy, and shooting into Gibson's vehicle. A mistrial was declared in their criminal case due to police errors.
After the incident, FedEx made Gibson return to work on the same route where the attack occurred. He was later fired for not accepting a part-time, non-courier job that the company offered him.
A previous $5 million lawsuit filed by Gibson against FedEx, the city of Brookhaven, the police chief, and the Cases was dismissed by a federal judge in August.
