CHICAGO — An 8-year-old boy was not properly harnessed to a safety rope when he fell 24 feet off a climbing wall at Chicago's Navy Pier this summer, suffering severe injuries, his parents allege in a new lawsuit.
Erin and Gideon Brewer took their three children to Navy Pier on July 27 while visiting the city from Grand Rapids, Michigan.
"We thought he was dead when he fell," his father, Gideon Brewer, told reporters."His little brothers saw him too, saw the whole thing, and were asking us, 'Is George dead? Is George dead?'" "Hearing your child asking if he's going to die. I mean, he's an 8-year-old boy," Erin Brewer said."It's like his innocence was taken from him."
