![Deadly Collision on Highway 110 [Los Angeles, CA]](https://crockettlawgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/CAR-ACCIDENT.png)
Orange County, CA (June 7, 2024) – Huntington Beach Collision: Jyles Timothy Sellers, a 24-year-old from Huntington Beach, faced his initial court appearance on Thursday, charged with gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated following a fatal hit-and-run incident.
The arraignment, initially slated for this session, has been postponed to June 28 at the West Justice Center in Westminster.
The charges are connected to a tragic accident on February 9, where Arturo Becerril Rodriguez, aged 55, also from Huntington Beach, lost his life. The collision happened late in the evening around 9:30 p.m. on Edinger Avenue, just east of Edwards Street.
According to police reports, Rodriguez was driving a 2010 Toyota Prius when struck by a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado, operated by Sellers.
Sellers allegedly fled the scene immediately following the collision. Emergency responders rushed Rodriguez to a nearby hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
Sellers was apprehended shortly after the incident. He is accused of excessive speeding and driving under the influence, which police believe led to the rear-end collision that resulted in Rodriguez’s death.
These allegations point to a clear disregard for the safety of others, raising serious legal and ethical questions about the responsibilities of drivers and the consequences of their actions.
In cases like this, the victim’s family may be entitled to substantial compensation.
The types of compensation typically considered include medical expenses incurred before the victim’s demise, funeral, and burial costs, loss of expected earnings, loss of love, companionship, comfort, care, assistance, protection, affection, society, and moral support, and pain and suffering the deceased may have endured before death.
When the at-fault party is charged with a crime, such as driving under the influence, punitive damages may also be pursued to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior.
