MIAMI – Ramon Bueno died in a crash on the eve of Father's Day. He was 71.
Bueno was driving near Southwest Seventh Street and Southwest 12th Avenue in Little Havana when his Honda was struck by a Miami police cruiser heading to an emergency call.
The officer survived the crash. So did the driver of an Audi that spun into the cruiser.
"It's not like I want anybody to go jail, but I need some answers. What happened? The city camera? I mean, it's very frustrating," Daimy Bueno said.
Miami police said they still haven't finished the investigation of the crash.
According to an initial accident report, an investigator wrote that Ramon Bueno had a green light when he drove into the intersection. The police officer entered on a red light at an estimated 50 mph.
The investigator wrote the officer was using his lights and siren at the time of the crash. However, Daimy Bueno said she wants more proof.
A video obtained by Local 10 News shows the cruiser come to rest without the light bar on.
"I hope that they do their job," Daimy Bueno said, adding that she is now left to care for her mother, mourn her father and wait for answers.
"The police (are) not above the law. No one is above the law," she said. "If someone made a mistake, they have to pay for that."
