Economy FROM PAGE 1 The Associated Press LOSANGELES The family of a Los Angeles student who was among 10 people killed when a FedEx truck collided with a charter bus in North- ern California is suing the shipping company. A wrongful-death law- suit to be filed Tuesday lays blame for the April 10 crash on the FedEx truck, its manufacturer, Volvo, and its driver, who was among those killed, the Los Angeles Times reported. The char- ter bus company, Silverado Stages, is also named in the lawsuit. The lawsuit is on behalf of Ismael Jimenez, 18, an as- piring artist. He and other teenagers were heading north for a free tour of Hum- boldt State University when the bus was struck head-on by the FedEx truck. Dozens escaped through windows before the bus ex- ploded into towering flames. But five students, three adult chaperones and both drivers died. The California Highway Patrol has not determined the cause of the crash in Or- land, 100 miles north of Sac- ramento. Before the crash, the FedEx driver signaled to change into the left lane and began to merge, the law- suit alleges. But the freight hauler never straightened out and instead continued east across a 58-foot stretch of median and into oncom- ing traffic. Jimenez's family is seek- ing unspecified damages, his attorney, Paul Kiesel, told the Times. The newspaper said the lawsuit is just the latest in what is expected to become a slew of litigation against the bus company and Fe- dEx. A student injured in the crash filed a lawsuit ear- lier this month, and in April the mother of a student who died filed a lawsuit seeking $100 million. Representatives for Fe- dEx and Silverado Stages each said the companies do not comment on litiga- tion. CALIFORNIA FedEx sued again over deadly bus collision By David Espo The Associated Press WASHINGTON Senate Re- publican leader Mitch Mc- Connell dispatched his tea party challenger with ease Tuesday night, and Demo- crats turned to two women, AlisonLunderganGrimesto oppose him in Kentucky and Michelle Nunn to fight for Georgia, in elections next fall with control of the Sen- ate at stake. Setting up a third high- profilerace,DemocraticSen. MarkPryorofArkansasand his Republican challenger, Rep. Tom Cotton, were un- opposed for their parties' nominations. On the busiest primary night of the year to date, Democrats eyeing a return to power in the Pennsylva- nia state Capitol, nominated businessman Tom Wolf to oppose Republican Gov. Tom Corbett's bid for a sec- ond term. Republican primary strugglesbetweenestablish- ment-backed conservatives and tea party-favored rivals were a dominant feature of theevening,astheyhadbeen earlierinNorthCarolinaand will be later in Mississippi, Kansas and Alaska. Repub- licans must gain six seats to win a Senate majority, and party leaders have made it a prioritytoavoidthepresence of candidates on the ballot this fall who are seen as too conservative or unsteady — or both — to prevail in win- nable races. McConnell, a five-term lawmaker and the embodi- ment of the GOP establish- ment,waspulling60percent ofthevoteinKentucky.Chal- lenger Matt Bevin was gain- ing 36 percent. For Democrats, Tuesday night was a chance to show- case challengers — both of them women — in the rare states where the party has hopes of picking up GOP- held seats. Grimes, a prize Demo- cratic recruit, was piling up 77percentinafour-wayrace, winning her Kentucky pri- mary with ease. In Georgia, Nunn, whose father was a four-term Dem- ocraticsenatorfromthestate, easily outpaced her Demo- cratic rivals and awaited the outcomeoftheGOPprimaryto learnheropponentforthefall. Seven Republicans vied for that nomination, and a two-way July 22 runoff ap- peared a certainty. With votes counted in 29 per- cent of the precincts, Rep. Jack Kingston was gaining 31 percent of the vote with businessman David Perdue close behind at 29 percent. Former Secretary of State Susan Handel was running third with 18 percent. PRIMARY McConnell beats out tea party challenger in Kentucky election By Jill Lawless TheAssociatedPress LONDON The Museum of London is turning its mag- nifying glass on the most fa- mous Londoner who never lived — Sherlock Holmes. The museum on Tuesday announced an exhibition de- votedtoArthurConanDoyle's Victoriandetective,featuring everythingfromhand-written manuscriptstothecoatworn by Benedict Cumberbatch in the BBC series "Sherlock." It's the first time the his- torymuseumhasbuiltashow around a fictional character. But Holmes is one of those rare creations who has long outlived his creator and cap- tured the public imagination for more than a century. "Therearepeopleoutthere who think he's a real person," said Alex Werner, the exhibi- tion's lead curator. "His pro- file has never been higher." Werner said with a new generation discovering the characterthroughtheBBC's "playful and reverential" ad- aptation, the timing seemed right for a major retrospec- tive. "This is the moment to say: He is one of London's icons. He helped make Lon- don what it is," Werner said. The exhibition — which opens Oct. 17 and runs to April 12 — examines the character's origins, in a se- ries of stories by doctor- turned-writer Conan Doyle, and his evolution through myriad stage and screen ad- aptations. Werner said the aim was to "peel back the layers" of a character who is simultane- ously cerebral sleuth, foren- sic scientist, drug-taking bo- hemian and archetypal Eng- lishman. The show draws liberally from the museum's large collection of Victorian cos- tumes and artifacts, includ- ing a 19th-century syringe; Holmes infamously relieved boredom with a seven-per- cent solution of cocaine in water. The Free Library of Phil- adelphia has loaned pages from Edgar Allan Poe's handwritten manuscript for the 1841 story "The Murders in the Rue Morgue." It's of- ten considered the first mod- ern detective yarn and was a childhood favorite of Conan Doyle.
