Today, my daughters & their competition cheer team competed in a US Cheer Productions competition at the John S Knight Center in Akron OH. To say I'm ENRAGED is an understatement.
While coming down the escalator after awards, my oldest daughters foot got stuck in the side of the escalator. She was hysterical, and very obviously in pain. I asked someone who I could talk to to get insurance information, because I was taking her to the hospital. They refused & a member of the Akron Police Department very rudely told my 10 year old daughter she was lying, that she simply brushed her shoe on the side and it could be wiped off. His response when the girls coach said the shoes need to be replaced was "I think you mean cleaned off, she scraped them, she's fine" She's 10 years old. Multiple people seen this happen, & I'm 100% sure she's not lying, the shoes are literally ripped. At this point I'm FUMING. The owner of the venue, RUDE and SO UNPROFESSIONAL. Akron PD, MORE RUDE & MORE UNPROFESSIONAL.
Just got back from the ER, deep tissue bruising caused by crush injury.
Shout out to Akron, Ohio Police & John S. Knight Center for disregarding the health of my 10 year old today, and for being so rude and disrespectful. We will not return. read more
