A wrongful death lawsuit over the death of Summer Taylor, a protestor who was struck and killed by a car on Interstate 5 in July of 2020, is expected to begin with opening statements in Seattle on Monday.

Taylor was taken to Harborview Medical Center in critical condition, and they died later on that night. The driver of the vehicle, identified as Dawit Kelete, who was 27 at the time, was later charged with vehicular homicide related to Taylor's death.
