Jailed former PRISON BREAK star LANE GARRISON has reached a financial settlement with the family of the teenager who was killed when he crashed his car in 2006.
Garrison pleaded guilty to vehicular manslaughter and driving under the influence of alcohol after Vahagn Setian was killed and two 15-year-old girls were injured in the drink and drug-fuelled California crash.
The actor was jailed for 40 months in October 2007 and Setian's parents have since launched a civil suit against him.
They were joined by crash survivor Michelle Ohana, who spent two months in a wheelchair following the accident.
Now Garrison has agreed a financial settlement with the Setian family and Ohana. The amount of money paid out has not been disclosed, reports TMZ.com.
The actor was ferrying the teenagers home after a Hollywood party when he lost control of his vehicle.
