The son of a woman from California is demanding Trump’s international hotels for alleged negligence, claiming that a Trump Hotel Las Vegas door made her fall and then die.
The demand for unfair death says that the woman, Diana Truschke, of the San Francisco Bay area, was 70 years old when she was beaten by a rotating door in the hotel that accelerated when she left, “violently” expelled her and making her fall and hit her face.
Las Vegas’ review was the first to report on the case.
The fall caused unspecified but serious and permanent injuries that required a continuous and extensive treatment, alleges the demand. On October 14, 2024, Truschke died “due to complications of his wounds” that arose from the alleged negligence of the hotel, he said.
He was 78 years old at the time of his death, he said.
The Trump organization, the family company led by President Donald Trump, who is Trump Hotels corporate father, did not immediately respond to a comment request on Tuesday night.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of the Women’s Heritage and her administrator, her son and her single heiress, John Truschke, in Clark Count, Nevada, Civil Court on March 18.
He alleges that the rotating door did not comply with laws and regulations and was in a dangerous state at that time. The hotel should have been aware that “it didn’t work properly,” according to the demand.
Diana Truschke was a real estate agent in San Mateo County, a coastal region south of San Francisco.
The demand said that at the time of its fall, it was patron of the Trump Las Vegas hotel, a height of 64 floors that opened in 2008 with accommodation and condominiums at the northern end of the famous city strip.
Demand seeks damage to medical and funeral expenses, as well as damage to pain and suffering.
