Fatal Head-On Collision I-82 | Seattle Wrongful Death Lawyer
Type: Wrongful Death
Date: November 7, 2009, 11/07/09
Location: I-82 near Benton County/Yakima County Line
Outcome: 1 dead, 2 injured
One woman is dead and another injured in a fatal car accident on Interstate 82 Saturday around 3 a.m.
Angelica Barajas, a Grandview resident, was pronounced dead at the scene. Her passenger, Stephanie C. Vega also of Grandview, was taken to Sunnyside Community Hospital for injuries along with the driver of the car that hit the women, Edward E. Castilleja.
According to Washington State Patrol, Barajas was driving her 2007 Chrysler 300 eastbound on I-82 when she was hit head-on by Castilleja in his 2008 Chevrolet Pickup truck.
Drugs and alcohol were believed to be a factor in this accident, but is still under investigation.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of Barajas and those injured in this crash.
Most wrongful death cases allow the surviving family members to file a claim for damages related to lost earnings, medical bills, funeral expenses and any pain or suffering the deceased may have gone through prior to their death.
Please contact a Seattle wrongful death attorney with extensive experience investigating and settling fatal accident claims if you feel your loved one has died from negligent, reckless or intentional acts of another.
