( 2003-10-23 15:53) (China Daily)
A park in Zibo, Shandong
Province, has been ordered to pay 84,154 yuan (US$10,164) to the family of a boy
who was killed when a cement statue in the park fell on him, Luzhong Morning
Post reports.
Gao Haoze and his grandfather visited Yangmingyuan Park on July 12.
The boy was playing with another child amongst three statues of deer on the
park's lawn when one of the figures toppled and fell on him. Gao was pronounced
dead on the way to hospital.
The court ruled that the park's administrative arm was 90 per cent
responsible for the boy's death, while his grandfather was also judged partly at
fault.
