According to the report, it was a man who pushed the trolley down the stairs and he quickly fled the scene. The supermarket has allegedly refused to take responsibility and said they would only do so if they were legally obligated to.

Workers of the shopping center said that they have installed signs near escalators prohibiting certain items from being loaded onto it, including shopping carts.

The police are now looking for the man. They are also deliberating whether or not the supermarket should carry responsibility.
