[06-03-2023] Los Angeles County, CA – 12-Year-Old Girl Injured After SoFi Stadium Employee Thrashed Food Cart in Inglewood

A 12-year-old girl, Marlyn T., was hurt by a SoFi Stadium employee while protecting her mother’s food cart in Inglewood on Saturday evening, June 3, 2023.

According to the Inglewood Police Department, the incident where the employee thrashed food carts happened just outside of the SoFi Stadium.

The victim’s mother, Lesbia T., sold food outside the stadium with her three children. After some time, she went to the restroom and left her children to watch over the food cart.

While she was in the restroom, a SoFi employee came out of the stadium and ordered all the vendors to move back, which all the vendors complied with. The employee returned, arguing with the vendors and thrashing food carts.

The victim tried to protect her mother’s business but was hurt in the process. The SoFi employee knocked their food cart over while the victim held onto it, also knocking her down.

The employee has been fired, officials confirmed. The worker was reportedly employed by a third party, according to the stadium.

Dedicated Premises Liability Injury Attorneys for Victims in Los Angeles County

Suppose you are the victim of a crime, such as assault, sexual assault, battery, or another criminal activity that harms you. In that case, you may be able to bring forth a negligent security claim against the property owner where the incident occurred. A negligent security suit is a type of premises liability claim. It holds that the property owner failed to provide reasonable security for the property and that the criminal activity (and your injuries) directly resulted from that failure.

Should the plaintiff establish these elements and causality (that the defendant’s breach of duty of care directly caused the plaintiff’s injuries), then the defendant would be liable for the plaintiff’s damages. Under the doctrine of premises liability, they would have a strong case against the property owner in that situation.
