MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – The family of a 5-year-old boy who was thrown by a stranger from the third floor balcony of the Mall of America in Minnesota this month, says he's alert and aware and that he is no longer in critical condition.
The family issued a statement Friday that Jesus "saved our son's life and healed him in the most miraculous way." They say that they are now focusing on additional surgeries, healing and rehabilitation. They hope the boy will be able to return home in June.
Prosecutors accused Emmanuel Aranda, 24, of attempted first degree murder with premeditation for the April 12 attack. The boy dived about 12 meters and suffered trauma to the head and multiple fractures.
The family said his donations to a million-dollar GoFundMe page are "stunned and blessed".
