GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) — Former Detroit Red Wing Kevin Miller denies he owes a $1.6 million judgment to an insurance company for a hit during a 2000 Swiss league game that ended a player’s career.
Miller’s hit on Andrew McKim caused the Canadian to suffer a severe concussion and neck injuries.
The Grand Rapids Press reports Wednesday (http://bit.ly/10evyVF ) that the Swiss insurance company wants a U.S. District Court judge to recognize a Switzerland court’s $1 million judgment against Miller. The figure has increased to $1.6 million with interest and costs.
Kevin Miller lives in Williamston and on Monday took part in an exhibition game with the Harlem Globetrotters in Portage.
