Former Olympic diver Bruce Kimball’s insurance companies have reached “an agreement in principle” to pay a total of $1.3 million to five victims of the car accident that killed two teen-agers and injured six others last August, Kimball’s attorney, James A. Murman, said.

Word of the agreement came a week before Kimball plans to ask a judge to reduce his 17-year prison sentence for drunk-driving manslaughter. Kimball, 25, is seeking a term of less than 10 years, which could mean a transfer out of maximum-security Tomoka Correctional Institution.
