Sunday, April 16, 2006
COMSTOCK PARK, Mich. — Two children were injured in a scramble to grab cash being dropped from a helicopter as part of a promotion after a minor league baseball game.
About $1,000 in cash was dropped Saturday from the helicopter over Fifth Third Ballpark's outfield as children lined the outfield fence.
After the cash was dropped, the children scrambled. A 7-year-old boy was trampled and taken to a hospital, while a 7-year-old girl got a bloody lip after being pushed onto the ground.
The boy, Tino Rodriquez, of Grant, suffered bruises to his chest and back, said his grandmother, Rita Rodriquez.
"Doctors said he got trampled pretty good," she said........http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,191921,00.html
