Lawsuit Filed Against Trucker in Kansas Crash That Killed Mother, 4 Kids

The paternal grandparents of a 10-year-old Kansas girl killed in a crash last week are suing the truck driver involved in the collision, along with his employer.

The Wichita Eagle reports that Mark and Carrie Brady are seeking damages in excess of $75,000 from the driver and L.B. White Trucking Inc. of Wellington.

The Bradys’ granddaughter, Anaiah Brady, along with her mother and three young siblings, all died in the accident on Friday when the family’s Ford Expedition collided with a loaded grain truck between Cheney and Clearwater.

Ronald White, who is affiliated with the trucking company, said he was not aware of the lawsuit and called the crash “a tragedy” when contacted by phone, but declined further comment.

An investigation of the accident continues and no charges have been filed.
