Man sues airport over wife's death
The Salt Lake Tribune reports that the husband of a woman who was killed in a crosswalk at the Salt Lake City International Airport is suing city and airport administration, claiming leaders ignored an airport employee who warned them of the dangers of the crosswalks.
Patricia Jordan was walking toward the car rental area when she was struck and killed by Evelini Kinikini. The lawsuit is claiming wrongful death not only because of Kinikini’s “negligent driving” but also because airport officials ignored a dangerous traffic situation.
“Salt Lake City and Salt Lake City International Airport were expressly warned of this danger before Jordan’s accident and chose to ignore this warning,” the lawsuit states.
Barbara Gann, airport spokeswoman, said she had not seen the lawsuit yet and likely wouldn’t be able to comment on pending litigation.
