Tiger attack victims file suit in federal court
November 14, 2008
Two San Jose brothers who survived a Christmas Day tiger attack at the San Francisco Zoo have filed a long-expected lawsuit against the city, zoo and others, claiming slander and civil rights violations in the aftermath of an incident that drew international attention.
The lawsuit by Amritpal “Paul” Dhaliwal, 20, and Kulbir Dhaliwal, 24, also contends they were permanently scarred by the escaped tiger, which killed Paul Dhaliwal’s close friend Carlos Sousa Jr., 17, before police shot and killed the animal. They’re seeking unspecified damages.
The lawsuit, filed Friday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco, contends the city and zoo were negligent on multiple fronts, including keeping the 243-pound Siberian tiger named Tatiana in an enclosure that had walls lower that what is recommended by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. They also say the zoo ignored workers’ warnings about the wall height.
