Two more lawsuits have been filed in the Nov. 16 Yellow Line crash that injured 38 people, according to attorneys representing some victims.
A southbound Skokie Swift train hit snow removal equipment on the tracks near the Howard station. Twenty-three people were sent to hospitals.
Zubair Hussain was hospitalized for three days in “pretty bad shape” after he was knocked unconscious by the impact, according to Joseph Murphy, a partner at Clifford Law Offices, which is representing Hussain and other victims.
Murphy said his clients “want to hold the CTA accountable and make sure it never happens again because they’re still going to ride the CTA. A lot of these folks rely on it.”
The Yellow Line remains closed with no expected reopening date, though shuttle bus service is available between Howard and the Dempster-Skokie station until the train line reopens.
