Parents of Asiana crash victim drop wrongful-death lawsuit

The parents of a 16-year-old girl killed by an emergency vehicle responding to the crash of an Asiana Airlines jet in San Francisco in 2013 have dismissed their lawsuit against city and county officials, who they accused of negligence in their daughter’s death.

The lawsuit was filed last summer in San Mateo County Superior Court. Gan Ye and Xiao Yun Zheng said their daughter, Ye Mengyuan, was hurt during the crash, left in a dangerous area and then abandoned by emergency workers as she lay in a "fetal position," only to be run over by two firefighting vehicles.
