A disabled burn victim says a valet employee at La Palmera Mall turned him away from a handicap parking spot — and told him he didn’t care about his condition.
Gabriel Alvarado, a Corpus Christi resident who was burned in an explosion 17 years ago, says the incident happened on a Sunday when he went to the mall with his daughter and her fiancee to get pizza after church.
After pulling into a handicap spot with his placard visibly displayed, Alvarado says a valet employee told him he couldn’t park there.
