A 2-year-old visiting San Francisco from Utah with his family died when a dolphin statue fell on him in the city's Fisherman's Wharf area, police said Monday,

The toddler was apparently playing on Friday when he climbed up and wrapped his arms and legs around the heavy statue outside Majestic Collection Art Gallery, bringing it down, police spokesman Officer Gordon Shyy said.

The boy was initially treated for a nose bleed by emergency crews. He was taken to San Francisco General Hospital, where he died from internal injuries a few hours later.

The medical examiner identified the boy as Kayson Shelton of Draper, Utah, about 20 miles south of Salt Lake City.

"It's an unfortunate and tragic incident," Shyy said.

Shyy told CBS San Francisco the little boy was with his mother, father and an older sister and possibly other family members.

He said the business was cited for placing an object or merchandise on a sidewalk where it impedes pedestrian traffic.

Do you think the Majestic Collection Art Gallery is responsible for this toddler being killed? Why / Why not?

Of course, it HAS to be the Gallery's fault.

You can't expect parents to tell their kid to "not do that" when they try to climb a statue that doesn't belong to them.
