Legal claim filed by families of victims in deadly Norwalk 605 Freeway crash against CHP

After a tragic crash on the 605 Freeway in Norwalk claimed the lives of four individuals, their families are seeking answers from law enforcement. During a recent press conference, the families of two victims, along with their lawyers, announced the filing of a legal claim. They raised concerns about the role of the California Highway Patrol (CHP) in the crash and questioned whether it could have been prevented if proper protocols were followed. The CHP reported that the initial crash occurred around 12:50 a.m. on July 20, involving a Nissan sedan and a CHP officer near the Firestone Boulevard onramp. The disabled Nissan was then struck by a Kia, leading to a fatal fiery collision that claimed the lives of the individuals inside the Nissan. The families of the victims, represented by attorney Thomas Feher, criticized the response of the CHP officer and highlighted a delay in warning other drivers about the disabled vehicle on the freeway. They expressed frustration over the lack of access to critical information and footage related to the incident. The families are seeking clarity on the sequence of events and have requested a more transparent investigation from the authorities.
