Tragic Park Incident Sparks Lawsuit | Kansas City News

A four-year-old boy, Tadens Joseph, died after being struck by an Amazon delivery van in a Kansas City park. The driver, Estefany Lara Ortiz, initially stopped but fled before help arrived. Now, Tadens’ parents have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Ortiz, the delivery company Daval Express LLC, and the van’s co-owner, alleging negligence and failure to check for children before driving. Footage reportedly shows the child near the vehicle, and the family seeks damages for medical costs, funeral expenses, and emotional loss — demanding accountability in a case that underscores the dangers of delivery vehicles in residential zones.
