The son of famous rapper Flo Rida suffered serious injuries after falling from a fifth-floor window in a New Jersey apartment complex March 4, according to the boy’s mother.
Zohar, 6, remains in the ICU after suffering fractures to his pelvis and feet, a lacerated liver, collapsed lungs and internal bleeding as a result of the fall, News12 New Jersey reported Thursday. The child’s mother, Alexis Adams, filed litigation naming the apartment complex’s owners and managers, as well as a construction company and a window installation company, TMZ reported. She has alleged the building was fitted with windows that “posed a hazardous condition,” according to News12.
