Child Who House Fell On Is Critical
posted (July 30, 2012)
Last we told you about Briton (Brighton) Cordova - who was crushed beneath a house as it collapsed on him and a friend.

They were playing with a pair of puppies when the lower stilts on the home gave way - killing both puppies and injuring Brighton and 7 year old Jova Griffith.

Luckily, Jova's injuries were not too serious and he was treated and released. But Briton remains in a critical condition on life support.

His mother told us that the boy's brain is swollen, his neck fractured; he has a collapsed right lung, injuries to his eye, stomach and face and he suffered cardiac arrest.

We'll keep updating you on this very sad case.
