The family of a man who was killed in a rollover crash in Miami-Dade County in February<\/a> involving two tow trucks remains heartbroken.<\/p>\n

NBC6 on Sunday spoke to Albert Montoto’s family two months after he was killed, who said they’re still waiting for justice to be served.<\/p>\n

On February 14, Montoto was celebrating his birthday, and two days later, he was gone.<\/p>\n

He was a son, a brother, a boyfriend, and is being remembered by the people who loved him most.<\/p>\n

“He was perfect,” his girlfriend said. There’s no other way to put it. He was super nice to everybody. He was the best brother, the best son that you could imagine.”<\/p>\n

“He was the best brother, the best son you could imagine,” his mother said. “That was my son.”<\/p>\n

The fatal crash has now left a family heartbroken.<\/p>\n

“I only lost him a year, and I loved him so much. How could his parents feel? I don’t know,” his girlfriend said. “That’s all I could think about when I thought that there was no way.”<\/p>\n

Dash cam video shows the moment everything changed.<\/p>\n

The crash happened along Old Dixie Highway in Southwest 288th Street in Homestead.<\/p>\n

Montoto was killed, and his brother-in-law remains in a coma.<\/p>\n

“There’s no words that could describe what I was going through that day,” his mother said. It’s like, that’s the mother’s worst nightmare.”<\/p>\n

So far, no charges have been filed.<\/p>\n

“That’s what hurts the most, that my son is dead and the other driver is just walking on the streets like nothing happened,” she said.<\/p>\n

The State Attorney’s Office said, “A traffic fatality alone does not mean that a violation of Florida’s criminal statutes has occurred. Only evidence that a violation of Florida’s criminal statutes has occurred would merit a criminal charge.”<\/p>\n

But Montoto’s family said that the evidence is already there.<\/p>\n

They shared the crash report with NBC6 that states “vehicle one failed to stop at a solid red light and its front bumper area crashed into vehicle two.”<\/p>\n

“This is not an accident; that’s reckless driving,” his mother said<\/p>\n

The investigation is still ongoing.<\/p>\n

NBC6 reached out to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office’s homicide unit, and is still waiting for a response back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The family of a man who was killed in a rollover crash in Miami-Dade County in February involving…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":238298,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[123,125,124,373],"class_list":["post-238297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-miami","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-news","tag-miami-dade-county"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=238297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/238297\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/238298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=238297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=238297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=238297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
