Nicholas Zajac was sentenced to six months in prison Monday in Portage County Common Pleas court.

The sentence comes seven months after the Halloween accident that left Dana Lim, a 26-year-old Parma resident, in a coma for three weeks after he was pushed into Lincoln Avenue and run over by a tow truck.

Judge John Enlow said that, as part of Zajac’s sentence, he will have to pay Lim’s medical bills, which the Akron Beacon Journal estimated at $40,000. Lim suffered multiple broken bones and internal injuries as a result of the accident.

Zajac pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in March.
