TL;DR

The family of 18-year-old Romanch Mahajan, who died when a horse-drawn carriage bolted in Central Park, alleges stray electrical voltage near Cherry Hill Fountain contributed to the incident. They filed four notices of claim seeking about $105 million from New York City, accusing agencies of lax safety regulation in the carriage industry as the city debates ending horse-drawn carriage rides.
