Echo Park, California (February 25, 2020) – Morena Del Carmen Alvarado-Lopez, 58, killed, and Juan Bahena, 71, injured after an auto-pedestrian crash on Monday afternoon in Echo Park, Los Angeles, according to police.
The police responded to the crash in the area of Sunset Boulevard and White Knoll Drive, at about 1:00 a.m., February 24.
Alvarado-Lopez and her husband Bahena were walking north on the roadway near the Club Bahia when they were hit by a car for unknown reasons. Following the crash, the vehicle dragged the couple for about 50 feet before they became dislodged.
The two victims were taken to County USC Medical Center, where Alvarado-Lopez succumbed to her injuries while Bahena was hospitalized with severe injuries.
Officials confirmed that the suspect fled the scene in an alleged burgundy or red 4-door passenger vehicle with possible front-end damage.
An investigation into the crash is ongoing.
“A person on foot is no match for a large, multi-ton vehicle. Pedestrians have virtually no protection when they are hit by cars, motorcycles, trucks, and other vehicles” Managing Partner and CEO Alpine Law Group, Mr. Arin Khodaverdian, believes. “Sadly, this often leads to catastrophic injuries including temporary or lifelong disability, severe disfigurement, severe physical and emotional pain, and/or death.” He adds.
Mr. Khodaverdian has worked for many years as a wrongful death and personal injury attorney. He and his team of attorneys have helped thousands of injury victims and their families recover over $100 million in compensation. “In one case, we recovered a 7-figure settlement within 11 business days of being hired by the family of a victim who was killed by a negligent driver.”
Swift action by an experienced attorney helps preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and begin to pursue those responsible for the incident.
