3-Year-Old Girl Dies In Orange County Car Accident
3-year-old Milena Avila was killed in a Santa Ana car accident that occurred on May 18, 2011, around 4:40 p.m. at Edinger Avenue and Kensington Park Drive. According to the responding Orange County officials, the victim was riding in her car seat when the car was broadsided by another vehicle due to unknown reasons. Three other people also suffered injuries in this car accident.
According to the coroner's office, the injured girl was immediately transported to Western Medical Center in Santa Ana for treatment, where she was pronounced dead after three hours. There is limited information and no clarity on the accident. Was one of the drivers intoxicated? Did a traffic violation occur? Was one of the drivers was negligent or distracted?
Whatever are the results of the investigation, an irreversible tragedy has happened and no consolation can be enough for loss of Avila. Though it is a tough time for Avila’s family, it would be in their best interest to seek counsel from an experienced car accident lawyer serving Orange County to obtain fair compensation to cover for funeral and burial costs, loss of love, for trauma suffered by the family and other accident-related expenses.
