A California family is suing a premium hospitality and fitness center after security footage showed an employee throw their 23-month-old son into the air, dropping him onto a hardwood floor and causing a traumatic brain injury.
The lawsuit accuses the Bay Club Clubhouse in El Segundo of intentionally falsifying incident reports and downplaying the severity of the toddler’s injuries to his parents. The facility claimed the child fell just 18 inches from a squatting position, but later reviewed surveillance video showed the worker launching the boy roughly six feet into the air, according to a complaint seen by the Los Angeles Times.
