Father of woman who died in fall from hotel sues

ATLANTA - The father of a woman who died after a fall from 10th-story Atlanta hotel room has filed a lawsuit against the hotel and its corporate owner.
Maurice Threatt on Friday filed a lawsuit in Fulton County State Court seeking damages from W Hotel Management and Starwood Hotels and Resorts, Inc. The hotel says the building underwent structural reviews that included the windows when the company took ownership in 2008.
Witnesses told police 30-year-old LaShawna Threatt and a second woman were ``play wrestling'' in a room at the W Midtown Hotel early on May 28 when they crashed into a window and fell through it.
The lawsuit claims negligence on the part of the hotel and seeks unspecified damages.
Threatt's lawyer did not immediately return an after-hours call seeking details Monday.
