David Soto-Toral was struck and killed by the trash collection vehicle on Jan. 25 in an alley in Sherman Oaks. His family plans to file a wrongful-death suit
The family of a 35-year-old man struck and killed by a Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation vehicle last month plans to file a wrongful-death lawsuit against the city.
His mother, Sara Toral, learned the news a day later from the coroner’s office. When she asked to see her son, she said, she was told he was “unrecognizable.”Los Angeles police responded around 11:45 a.m. to a report of a pedestrian who had been hit by a vehicle in the 15000 block of Burbank Boulevard, a residential area near the Sepulveda Basin Recreation Area, Los Angeles Police Department officials said.
Soto-Toral was the type of son who would buy her sour candy — her favorite — when he knew she was having a hard time, Toral said. In a Mother’s Day card he gave her last year, he wrote, “Thank you for always being there for me through the ups & downs. I’m so excited to know that from here on out you’ll be experiencing the best version of me. You’ll get to see & be proud of the man you always knew I could be.
