Newport Beach, California – Authorities confirmed that a 16-year-old boy killed in an e-bike accident last week has been identified as Jagger Boys.

Emergency responders transported him to a local hospital, where he died from his injuries on Friday.
Police have not released additional details about the circumstances of the crash. The investigation remains ongoing.
Can anyone be held liable in a single-rider e-bike crash death?
When a fatal accident occurs on an e-bike with no other vehicles involved, many families wonder if anyone can be held legally responsible. While some crashes are truly accidental, there are situations where liability may still exist.
For example, if a dangerous road condition, faulty bike part, or poorly maintained property contributed to the crash, certain parties could be accountable. In such cases, skilled wrongful death attorneys can investigate whether a manufacturer, property owner, or municipality failed in their duty of care. Similarly, bicycle accident attorneys are experienced in uncovering whether defective brakes, electrical systems, or other e-bike components played a role in the tragedy. If the crash happened on unsafe private or commercial property, premises liability attorneys may pursue claims against those responsible for failing to keep the area safe.
Even in single-rider incidents, families may have legal options to seek compensation for medical bills, funeral expenses, and emotional suffering. Having experienced legal guidance is critical to uncover the truth and hold negligent parties accountable.Call Megeredchian Law today at (866) 359-0807 for a free consultation.
