Houston,TX : Lawsuit filed in crash that killed mother, son on Thursday, 10th May 2018

A lawsuit has been filed after a crash killed a mother and her baby boy.

Police said in February a suspected drunken driver caused the crash that took the lives of Shayla Joseph and her son, Braylon.

Rivas' car slammed into Joseph's vehicle on the Gulf Freeway service road in Webster.

Joseph's husband is now suing Rivas and the bars where police said she was drinking in the hours before the crash.

Joseph and Braylan were dead by the time ambulances got to them that morning.

They were struck from the rear by the car driven by Rivas, who was 20 years old at the time of the crash.

Rivas was charged with two counts of intoxicated manslaughter.
