Accident Details: The accident occurred at the intersection of Limonite Avenue and Harrison Avenue around 7 p.m. When Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies arrived, they found Hurtado with significant injuries. Unfortunately, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigation: The Jurupa Valley Sheriff’s Station Traffic Collision Reconstruction Team’s early findings indicate that drugs and alcohol were not contributing factors. However, the cause of the collision remains unknown, and the investigation is ongoing.
Legal Considerations: As a personal injury attorney, I find that several aspects of this case warrant further examination. Given the limited details currently available, investigators must examine several key factors to determine the cause of this collision. These factors may include the drivers’ behavior, the vehicles’ mechanical condition, inadequate signage, and potential road defects.
Wrongful Death Claim: If negligence is identified in any of these areas, the family may be able to hold the responsible party accountable by filing a wrongful death claim. This claim can help families recover compensation for various losses, including funeral expenses, lost future earnings, and the emotional toll of losing a loved one.
