The family of a 19-year-old woman is demanding answers after she died in a crash at the bakery where she was working in Atascocita, in the Houston area.
According to FOX 26, Zion Branch died on June 30th while working at the Nothing Bundt Cakes bakery when a vehicle crashed into the business.
Investigators say a 70-year-old man crashed into the bakery after he accidentally pressed the gas pedal instead of the brake, sending his vehicle into the storefront.
The family has retained civil rights attorney Ben Crump to raise questions about the driver's actions that day and about whether safety barriers could have prevented the crash.
Crump said the family intends to press for answers, vowing to ask every question in Branch's memory as they seek accountability for what happened.
The attorney also said witnesses have come forward describing a similar incident at the same strip mall, and that the family is determined to help prevent something like it from happening again.
