ATLANTA: A five-year-old boy died after being crushed in a rotating restaurant atop a tower in Atlanta, US.
Officials have identified the boy who died after getting caught in the rotating wall of the Sun Dial restaurant, which sits atop the Westin Peachtree Plaza hotel.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that the Fulton County Medical Examiner identified the boy on Sunday as Charlie Holt.
The boy got his head stuck between two tables and suffered a head injury Friday at the Sun Dial.
Atlanta Police Officer S.R. Brown says Holt was visiting along with his parents from Charlotte, North Carolina.
The family was at a window seat when Holt wandered away from the table.
Brown says the rotating floor shut off automatically when Holt was struck.
Holt was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
A restaurant representative with the hotel says the Sun Dial will be closed until further notice.
