Family Suing Over Elevator Death

The family of a student from Erie who was crushed to death in a dorm elevator more than two years ago is suing Ohio State University.

The suit filed by the family of Andrew Polakowski seeks more than $50,000 and says the school was negligent. Polakowski was 18 years old on October 20, 2006, when he got pinned trying to leave an overcrowded elevator that was stuck between floors.

A university spokesman says the university has kept in regular contact with the Polakowskis' attorneys and is reviewing the family's filings.
