Family announces lawsuit in connection with death of street vendor struck by stolen Amazon truck in South LA
Grieving family members has announced a lawsuit in connection with the death of a 67-year-old street vendor who was fatally struck by a stolen Amazon truck in South Los Angeles last year.
The family of the victim, Jose Rangel, visited the crash site for the first time on Tuesday and held a news conference to discuss the lawsuit, which alleges negligence. The incident occurred in March 2022. Dashcam video from the idling vehicle shows the suspect, a man, climbing into the driver's seat while the delivery person was dropping off a package.The victim's loved ones says he typically set up shop on the street to sell whatever items he could, in or der to make a living and support his family.
Sam Dordulian, an attorney representing the family, said the delivery driver was negligent in leaving the vehicle unlocked, running and unattended. Dordulian said the truck was "full of packages for people to come in and steal -- and that's exactly what happened." According to Dordulian, Amazon claims the delivery person was working for an independent delivery company and therefore the online retail giant is not responsible.
