A tragic accident occurred at a UC Berkeley fraternity when 21-year-old Bandna Bhatti fell from a stairway, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. The incident happened on April 19 during "Cal Day" festivities, just three weeks before Bhatti's graduation. Family reports state she has sustained multiple severe injuries, including a spinal fracture and brain hematoma. Following the fall, she was reportedly not discovered for about 15 minutes, and emergency services were not contacted until seven hours later, raising serious concerns about the fraternity's response to the incident.
Bhatti was apparently on an external metal stairway at the fraternity house when she suffered the fall. She fell at least 12 feet and landed in a passageway outside the house.
According to a GoFundMe for Bandna Bhatti's recovery, the medical issues are quite severe. In addition to a spinal fracture, Bandna also sustained severe injuries, including tearing of the dura with spinal fluid leakage.
