Members of the family of the father and daughter killed in a 2009 runaway big-rig crash in La Cañada Flintridge will receive $3.15 million from the truck driver and state transportation officials to settle civil lawsuits.
The settlements were reached Thursday during a conference in Los Angeles County Superior Court in Glendale.
The family of Palmdale residents George and Angelina Posca — who were killed when Marcos Costa’s truck barreled through the intersection of Foothill Boulevard and Angeles Crest Highway after losing its brakes — filed wrongful death lawsuits against Costa, Caltrans and La Cañada.
