Mr. Witt stating in his claim that while sliding down the water slide at the swimming
pool the palm of his right hand was ripped open by a bolt extending at a right angle
from the side of the slide near the bottom of the slide, the bolt being a part of the
bracing of the slide. Mr. Witt was treated by Dr. Kelley and Dr. Shannon at the
Lubbock Memorial Hospital and states that ten stiches were needed to close the wound.
Investigation by the City discloses that no bolts protruded from the side of the slide,
the lower support on the right side being secured to the bottom of the slide by a rounded
shackle bolt which is beneath the slide and not on the side. Pictures of the slide and
--• close-ups of the supports and bolts are on file in the Legal Department of the
City together with a statement of liability on the part of the City prepared by the City
Attorneys Office. This claim was referred to the City Attorney Jbr consideration and
recommendation.
