Southern California family files lawsuit against theme park alleging roller coaster killed son
Briefly

In June 2022, Christopher Hawley, 22, collapsed after riding the X2 roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain. His family claims the ride caused severe head injuries leading to his death, prompting a wrongful death lawsuit against the park and the manufacturer. Their younger brother, Alex, noted Christopher's alarming state after the ride, mientras que family attorney Ari Friedman expressed confidence in proving the injuries sustained were due to the ride. An autopsy confirmed blunt head trauma as the cause of death, and the family seeks accountability for tragic events on what was meant to be a fun outing.
"Christopher, he just looked very red, just very like, something just wasn't like right, and then he eventually just collapsed on his way off the ride."
"The type of injuries that Christopher suffered... gives us strength and confidence to believe that... this was not an injury he suffered earlier... but happened during the X2 ride."
