紐約一名14歲男孩,在布魯克林一家商場逛電子菸店時,被弄瞎眼睛,而該商場竟不理會。
4月5日Leor Domatov跟兩個朋友,坐公車到國王百貨商場(Kings Plaza mall),去逛一家電子菸商店。
不知道你怎麼看,但我們認為這男孩,一看就知道他年紀太小,根本不到紐約州的成年標準18歲,更不可能有21歲-也就是在紐約市,選購電子菸具的合法年齡。
一個腦袋裝漿糊的店員,居然把電子菸插錯充電器,讓男孩握著。
結果充電器在男孩眼前爆炸,金屬碎片穿過他雙眼。爆炸害他雙手嚴重灼傷,一隻手被劃出大裂口,要縫28針。
這位8年級男孩向《紐約每日新聞》(New York Daily News)表示:「我左眼角膜被穿透,已經看不見了,右眼角膜被穿刺一半,只能看見一點點,雙手被嚴重灼傷,痛得要命。」
目擊者表示,爆炸發出轟然巨響,好似炸彈。Domatov在史泰登島大學醫院(Staten Island University Hospital)燒燙傷部住了五天,而他的右眼視力,還不知能否完全恢復。
Domatov的爸爸Jonathan聯繫該商場時,他們竟回答:「你怎麼會讓14歲兒子逛電子菸店?」是的,他們一家人打算提出告訴。這案子,勝負分明了吧。
英文原文:
It appears a Brooklyn mall doesn’t give a crap that a vape shop at the mall blinded a 14-year-old kid.
Leor Domatov hopped on the B9 bus to Kings Plaza mall on April 5th with two friends and checked out the Plaza Vapes kiosk.
Now I don’t know about you, but to us this kid looks pretty darn young … Nowhere close to the legal age of 18 in the state of New York, and certainly not 21, which is the age limit for handling or buying vape devices in the city limits of New York.
The accident occurred after a dimwitted clerk allegedly connected a vape device to the wrong type of battery charger the boy was holding.
The battery device exploded in Domatov’s face and shards of metal penetrated both of his eyes. He suffered severe burns on both of his hands, with one hand requiring 28 stitches to close a massive gash caused by the powerful explosion.
The eighth-grader told the New York Daily News, ‘In my left eye, I have a cut through the cornea and I can’t see out of it, and on my right eye the cornea was cut halfway through and I can see a little bit. I have severe burns on both hands. It’s very painful.’
Witnesses said it sounded like a bomb went off. Domatov spent five days at the Staten Island University Hospital burn unit. Whether he’ll ever recover full sight in at least his right eye is unknown.
Domatov’s dad Jonathan contacted the mall and says they essentially responded: ‘Why would you let your 14-year-old son visit a vape shop?’ And yes, the family plans to sue. Sounds like a slam-dunk case, no?
