I live in Ohio.
Sunday afternoon during a birthday party for my daughter, two kids were playing ball across the street. A baseball hit by one shattered my son's cars windshield. The car was parked legally in front of our house, on the street.
My son was able to get the boy's name and phone number. He filed a police report the next day. My insurance company says that the boy's parent's homeowners insurance is responsible for paying the bill. ($310.00)
The windshield was put in today and my son paid them. His comprehensive insurance has a $500 deductible so he is out $310.00.
It turns out that the boy attends my church and I know his parents. The mother says that her insurance company told her they were not responsible as it happened at a public park.
WHO is responsible. My next call will be to the Parks and Recreation Dept., but since it wasn't a game sponsored by them- they will probably say that THEY are not responsible.
Is small claims the next step?
Any help greatly appreciated.
