Since the accident, Harris has attended several City Council meetings and also filed a lawsuit against the City of Lemon Grove.
“Even with the lawsuit pending, the city can still do something. There’s nothing stopping them from making this a priority to ensure that this doesn’t happen to another child or any adult ever,” she said.
