Boy's Foot Caught in Escalator
May 22, 2001
The escalator in the lobby of the Fountain Bleu Hotel in Miami Beach caught an eight year-old boy by surprise when it sucked in the tip of his shoe. Fortunately for him, a film crew shooting in the hotel heard the boy's screams. A hotel employee stopped the escalator by hitting the emergency button and several film crew members managed to pry open the escalator and release the boy's foot. After getting an X-ray, the boy was released with bruises and lacerations on his foot.
