A family has filed a lawsuit alleging that a toddler suffered a serious brain injury at a Bay Club location in El Segundo, California, after a childcare worker threw the child into the air and allegedly failed to catch him. NBC News and the Los Angeles Times report that the incident reportedly happened last year at The Bay Club’s El Segundo Clubhouse.
According to the lawsuit described by both outlets, the child’s injuries are characterized as severe, including a brain injury. The complaint also alleges that the company attempted to cover up the true nature of the incident, though the outlets describe these claims without detailing specific actions.
The reports frame the case around the family’s allegations and the company’s purported response, citing the lawsuit as the source of the claims. The outlets do not indicate the status of any criminal or regulatory findings, and they do not report a response from the defendant within the provided summaries. The matter is presented as ongoing litigation based on the allegations in the complaint.
