دعوى ضد رجل بـ500 ألف دولار بعد إنقاذ طفلة من مسبح

Not guilty.

A man climbed over a fence to rescue a child who had fallen into a swimming pool but was later sued by the child's parents for trespass and asked to pay five hundred thousand dollars in damages.

Security footage shows that Michael Carter was walking past the house when he suddenly heard someone screaming for help.

When he went to check, he saw a girl floating face down in the pool.

Michael immediately jumped into the water and pulled her out.

At that moment, the girl was not breathing.

Michael quickly began performing CPR. By the time the ambulance arrived, the girl had already started breathing again.

Emergency responders said that if Michael had acted just one minute later, the girl might not have survived.

However, after learning what happened, the girl's parents filed a lawsuit against Michael for entering private property without permission.

Their lawyer argued that Michael entered the property without authorization and even triggered the home security alarm.

According to them, he should have called nine one one first instead of entering the yard himself.

They also claim that the CPR caused bruising to the girl's ribs, which resulted in medical expenses.

For this reason, the parents are demanding five hundred thousand dollars from Michael to cover treatment costs.

The case is still being heard in court. If you were the judge, how would you rule?

Do you think Michael should be held responsible?
