Denver (KDVR)-The Denver Police Administration said the charges will not be lifted after a 11-year-old man fell six stories from a window in Tamarac family shelter In Denver.
On Friday, Fox31 received information from the Denver Police Department that the provincial prosecutor’s office will not provide fees after the accident.
On July 7 at about 2:15 pm, a report on a child was submitted from the hotel that turned into East Hamden Street. Several agencies were received and the child was transferred to the Children’s Hospital.
The Denver Fire Department stated that the child was awake and fast to respond, but he was injured.
In a statement, he told the Army of Salvation, Fox31, in a statement that it had fulfilled all the requirements to ensure that the windows are secured and the guests were informed in the building that windows should remain closed.
Denver also presented by Fox31 a statement, concluding: “Safety will always be our top priority, however, at this time we have no reason to believe that this is more than a terrible and unfortunate accident.”
Denver’s mayor also said that when the city bought the hotel to make it a shelter, changes were made on the windows, as there were proven balconies.
Mayor Mike Johnston said: “We had some people who have cut off these systems and opened the doors even against our instructions,” said Mayor Mike Johnston. “Thus, the tragedy that occurred yesterday with the child who fell, was that this was a room in which they had cut the lock that we set.”
Johnston said on July 9 that the city is installing a new brand of unlocked lock.
“It has not been removed with any amount of amateur efforts,” said Johnston. “Thus I think I am really grateful to everyone who is their studied approach to the foreground, then a quick response to add additional protection even though people are manipulating those locks that we have seen clearly that we do not want to open it.”
The city Fox31 told email that while trying to improve ventilation in the rooms, the nails were installed to make the design more difficult to tamper with it. The city said that the work began before the fall on July 7, and said that the current design was safe as long as it is not tampered with.
