Lawsuit Alleges Negligence in Trump Hotel Las Vegas Death
A California man is pursuing legal action, suing Trump International Hotels for alleged negligence after his mother’s fatal incident at the Las Vegas property. The lawsuit contends that a malfunctioning revolving door at the Trump Hotel Las Vegas caused the woman to fall, leading to her subsequent death.
Revolving Door Incident Leads to Wrongful Death Claim
According to the wrongful death lawsuit, Diana Truschke, a resident of the San Francisco Bay Area in her 70s, was impacted from behind by a revolving door at the hotel. The legal filing states the door accelerated rapidly as she was exiting, forcefully propelling her forward. This resulted in a fall where she struck her face and sustained severe injuries.
Details of the Alleged Incident
Reports indicate the incident occurred at the Trump Hotel Las Vegas, and the lawsuit details that the fall inflicted significant and permanent injuries. These injuries necessitated continuous and extensive medical treatment. The suit further asserts that on October 14, 2024, Ms. Truschke passed away “due to complications from her injuries” that allegedly originated from the hotel’s negligence.
At the time of her death, she was 78 years old.
Legal Action and Allegations
Filed in Clark County, Nevada, civil court on March 18, the lawsuit was initiated by John Truschke, the administrator of his mother’s estate and her sole heir. The legal document claims the revolving door was not compliant with safety regulations and was in a hazardous condition at the time of the incident. The lawsuit argues the hotel should have been aware that the door “was not functioning correctly.”
