I hung on the door frame, and the frame suddenly fell forward

On the afternoon of November 28th, in the general surgery ward of Zhen'an County People's Hospital, 15-year-old Cao Zhen was undergoing intravenous infusion. On the evening of November 19th, he underwent splenectomy surgery here.

"On the afternoon of November 19th, the second class was physical education." Cao Zhen said that the physical education class was organized by the sports committee and did not see the physical education teacher. After the sports committee had the group run two laps, everyone was free to move around. He and some classmates were going to cross the playground to play play badminton.

When walking towards the dilapidated football door frame in the center of the playground, Cao Zhen first hung his hand on it, then hooked his foot on it. Suddenly, the door frame fell forward and hit Cao Zhen in the abdomen.

"At that time, I felt difficulty breathing, especially when I couldn't exhale," Cao Zhen said. There was a sharp pain in my abdomen at the time, and I was later taken to the county hospital. When he woke up again, it was already around 9 o'clock that evening, and he only found out that his spleen had been removed.

The iron pipe of the goal frame was deformed and fractured, and the school did not repair and reinforce it in a timely manner

The attending doctor of Cao Zhen explained that the goal frame hit Cao Zhen's abdomen, causing a rupture of the abdominal artery and massive bleeding. In order to save his life, his spleen was removed, and it was not until November 26th that Cao Zhen was out of danger.

Cao Zhen's father provided photos of the football door frame, and the reporter saw that the football door frame was rusted and damaged. In addition, the iron pipe that landed on the ground at the back has deformed and broken from the main body of the door frame. "How can we ensure the safety of students with such sports facilities that are not properly maintained and pose safety hazards, even if the school fails to repair them in a timely manner?" Mr. Cao said.

"We were very angry. After the incident, the school sent the child to the hospital. When the child underwent surgery, the school's people were gone." Mr. Cao said, "Except for the child's homeroom teacher, no one else has come to see the child.". "In addition, they only painted the worn-out goal frame without reinforcement, and it's still there, which is also a safety hazard for other students."

At 3:00 pm on November 28th, in the playground of Zhen'an Middle School, both ball door frames had been painted with white paint, with the words "No Climbing" on them. The broken and deformed iron pipes at the back had been repaired, but not reinforced. With a little force, the ball door frames would tilt forward.

The ball door frame does not need to be reinforced. Students have independent civil capacity

"The goalpost has been in use for seven or eight years and has not been reinforced. The goalpost in various places is like this," said the person in charge of Zhen'an Middle School. After the accident, the school painted the goalpost with white paint and wrote the words "No climbing", and there is no need to reinforce it. In addition, Cao Zhen is already 15 years old and has independent civil capacity. After the incident, the school promptly took him to the hospital.

The person in charge said that this matter has not been reported to the county education bureau yet. As for the division of responsibilities, it will wait for Cao Zhen's recovery, "and then we will define whose responsibility it is."

Lawyer Fan Qin from Shaanxi Hengda Law Firm said that during classes, the school has an obligation to ensure the safety of students. If the school fails to fulfill its safety and regulatory obligations, it should bear the fault responsibility.
