Victims of Deadly Venice Boardwalk Auto Incident Testify
The preliminary hearing for the man accused of purposely driving his car onto the Venice Boardwalk to hit people resumes Wednesday.
Victims of the Aug. 3 vehicular tragedy on the Venice Boardwalk testified Tuesday in the preliminary hearing of defendant Nathan Louis Campbell in a Los Angeles Superior Court courtroom.
Campbell was driving a 2008 Dodge Avenger when it made its way onto the Boardwalk, hitting people and objects in its path. A newlywed from Bologna, Italy, Alice Gruppioni, 32, died from injuries sustained in the incident; 16 were injured.
Campbell's preliminary hearing will resume Wednesday. He has been charged with murder, assault, and hit and run.
The Tuesday court session followed the first one held about a month ago. The delay was due to scheduling the return of out-of-area tourists who saw the incident.
After preliminary hearing testimony, a judge will decide if there is sufficient evidence to hold Campbell for trial on any charges.
