THE MCDONALD'S in L.A. where Maria Vargas Luna was fatally injured in a confrontation in 2024.
Jose Juan Rangel and his wife, Maria Vargas Luna, pulled up to a McDonald's drive-through nearly two years ago to order some food when they were approached by a person asking for change.
What is a common and usually uneventful interaction in Los Angeles turned into a bloody confrontation with tragic results.
According to a lawsuit filed by Rangel against McDonald's this month, he and his wife were attacked by the man, and McDonald's employees failed to intervene or call for help. Luna later died from her injuries.
