: 'Ali' crew rescues boy during shoot
: MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) - A film crew working on "Ali," a movie based on the life of Muhammad Ali,
: rescued an 8-year-old boy whose foot got stuck under a hotel escalator rail. Nicolas Potolsky was on an
: upward escalator in the Fontainebleau Hilton late Wednesday when his rubber beach shoe got sucked under
: the rail of the top step, hotel spokeswoman Lisa Cole said. Crew members filming a victory scene in a nearby
: ballroom heard the boy scream and ran over to help. A hotel worker who also heard Nicolas' cry quickly shut
: off the escalator, officials said. About a dozen movie workers used crowbars to pry the rail open and free the
: child after they tried unsuccessfully to pull back the rubber handrail. Nicolas, who was staying at the resort
: with his mother, was taken to Mount Sinai Medical Center for X-rays, investigators said. Fernandez said the
: boy suffered bruises and cuts.
