Mother of Oregon Child Strangled by Window Blinds Sues Apartment for $4M
The mother of a 3-year-old girl who died after being strangled by a window blinds cord in a Clackamas County, Ore. apartment has filed a $4 million lawsuit.
The Oregonian/OregonLive reported Sahrye Imani Hardy had been visiting a resident at Pineview Apartments with her mother last year when she became entangled in a dangling cord.
The suit alleges the apartment management company allowed cords longer than 7 1/4 inches to hang from the window covering, posing a hazard for children.
A representative from the management company said Wednesday they hadn’t seen the lawsuit and declined comment.
