Gilroy – The family of Gilroy resident Sean Merriman filed suit Monday against the truck driver who slammed into a Caltrans truck on April 4, killing their son.

The tow company also was named as a defendant in the suit.
Correction
A Sept. 12 front-page story about two South County residents killed by Union Pacific freight trains should have stated that there is no annual average number of deaths on the Caltrain rail system as there is no way of knowing how may people will be killed. There have been 11 deaths on the Caltrain rail system this year, 10 of those on tracks owned by Caltrain.
