Boy Killed in Coast Guard Crash
Posted on Feb 17, 2010
A Coast Guard vessel was traveling to fast speed when it struck and killed an 8-year-old boy while he was on his family boat. The lawsuit was filed in federal court in San Diego on behalf of 13 people aboard the 26-foot Sea Ray boat that was hit by the Coast Guard vessel. The people on the boat that got hit are seeking unspecified damages for negligence and wrongful death.
The Coast Guard previously promised a full investigation. The National Transportation Safety Board and the San Diego Harbor Police are also investigating the cause of the crash.
Accidents can happen on land and in the water. If you have been injured on the water you need to call a maritime attorney who knows maritime law. Maritime law is different from typical rules and laws on land.
