Woman Who Fell in Fountain in YouTube Video May Sue

Remember how we all laughed last Friday at the cautionary tale that was "Girl falls into fountain while texting at the Berkshire Mall"?

Well, the folks at the mall where the incident occurred probably aren't laughing now, as Cathy Cruz Marrero (the fountain woman) is considering suing them.

The video in question -- in case you haven't seen it -- is pretty self-explanatory. It features a mall security video with audio of mall employees laughing at Marrero as she texts while walking, subsequently falling into a fountain.

Now, Marrero is making the news circuit rounds with a lawyer in tow, stating that she might be suing the mall.

"My issue is I don't think security was professional because they didn't send anyone to check on me until 20 minutes later and I had already left," Marrero told Reading Eagle.

"We are troubled by the fact that anyone at the Berkshire Mall responsible for releasing this video would find humor in an employee injured on the premises," her lawyer, James M. Polyak, added. "We intend to hold the appropriate persons responsible."

What do you think of Marrero's actions?
