Santa Ana, CA (July 14, 2024)- Pedestrian Fatally Hit by Multiple Vehicles: A tragic incident unfolded on the Santa Ana (5) Freeway when a pedestrian was fatally hit by multiple vehicles late Friday night. According to authorities, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) reported that the accident occurred around 11:45 p.m. on the southbound lanes of the freeway, just east of First Street in Santa Ana.
The victim, a man wearing a plaid jacket, was found lying on the right shoulder of the freeway.
The CHP responded quickly to the scene, and a representative from the coroner’s office arrived at 12:19 a.m. to confirm the fatality. As of now, there is no additional information regarding the circumstances leading up to the accident or the identity of the deceased.
When a pedestrian is fatally hit by multiple vehicles, the impact on their family is devastating, both emotionally and financially. In such tragic cases, there are several types of compensation that the victim’s family may be entitled to pursue.
These can include compensation for medical expenses incurred before death, funeral and burial costs, loss of future earnings, loss of companionship, and pain and suffering endured by the victim before passing away.
In the state of California, wrongful death claims can be complex, involving numerous factors that must be carefully evaluated to determine the extent of the damages.
The process of filing these claims requires a thorough understanding of personal injury law, as well as the ability to navigate the legal system efficiently to ensure that the family receives the justice and compensation they deserve.
