On Tuesday morning, the family of a United States Marine officer grieved as they received news that their relative had died. The victims of a traffic accident was a 25 year old man who had been a member of the Marines for years. Family members said he worked for the boys and girls club and was a dedicated member of society. Authorities still have not found a significant cause of his vehicle accident. The United States Marine leaves his mother, father, and siblings to grieve his loss. Medical officials pronounced him dead at the scene of the automobile accident, and draped him with an American flag instead of the traditional cloth used to cover a victim’s body.
The automobile accident reportedly took place around 9 a.m. on Tuesday morning. The young man was headed south bound on a Los Angeles Highway when he swerved his vehicle sharply. This caused the vehicle to overturn several times before finally colliding with a concrete highway barrier. No other vehicles were involved in the incident and the car did not cause damages to any properties. It is unclear whether or not the victim intentionally created a circumstance to cause this accident or whether there was an unseen factor that caused the accident.
Though the victim’s name has not yet been released, plans have already been made to honor his life. Friends and family of the victim gave statements to the media describing his cordial personality and life of service. His home going service will undoubtedly bring visitors to mourn the loss of a serviceman of the United States Military. The accident caused delays on a major Los Angeles highway, but did not lead to any major shut downs or a redirection of traffic. It is unclear whether the victim of the accident was killed on impact.
