On March 18, after watching a Rangers hockey game, the son of a well-known restaurant owner in New York City died after falling down an escalator at Madison Square Garden.
In the enormous arena, 61-year-old Ernest Vogliano Jr was riding an escalator when he fell three floors.
The medical examiner determined that his death was an accident, according to his family and the authorities.
Lena Vogliano, Vogliano’s wife, was dissatisfied with her interactions with NYC law enforcement and hired a private investigator/attorney to look into the situation. She alleges that the police failed to inform her of the tragedy’s details or its cause.
The family had to review all the evidence, according to Fred Eisenberg, the Vogliano family’s attorney, because they did not know what had happened to Vogliano.
Around 10:40 p.m. on Saturday, 911 calls were made about a person who was hurt at the Madison Square Garden arena. The man was found by the responding officers unconscious and bleeding from a head wound.
The 61-year-old was taken by emergency personnel to Bellevue Hospital, where medical staff declared him dead.
His cause of death was determined by the city medical examiner to be an accident and blunt force trauma.
Attorney Eisenberg claims that the wife was not informed of the specifics of her husband’s death, which prompted the attorney to write to Madison Square Garden officials demanding that all proof of Vogliano’s death be preserved.
The late Ernest Vogliano, Sr, proprietor of the renowned II Vagabondo restaurant, a well-loved Italian eatery on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, before it closed down, was the victim’s father.
