Stillwater Man Dies When Moped Rear Ended

Thomas Gabriel of Stillwater, Minnesota, was killed when his moped was rear ended by a Chevy Tahoe. Mr. Gabriel was stopped and waiting for traffic in order to turn on Oak Glen when the accident occurred.

When a person dies in a car accident, the family is faced with expenses, loss of income, and the loss of the love and care of the deceased. To compensate family members for the expense and loss, the family members can sue the responsible party in a Minnesota wrongful death lawsuit.

In Minnesota, wrongful death claims are governed by Minnesota Statutes, section 573.02. According to the statute, “When death is caused by the wrongful act or omission of any person or corporation, the trustee appointed as provided in subdivision 3 [the trustee represents the surviving spouse and the next of kin] may maintain an action therefor if the decedent might have maintained an action, had the decedent lived, for an injury caused by the wrongful act or omission.”

Any family member of the deceased person can contact a lawyer regarding a Minnesota wrongful death lawsuit.
