MEDIA - A Sharon Hill man sued Advance Fitness LLC of Collingdale after he fell off a box during box jumps in a workout class, according to documents filed Feb. 25 in the Delaware County Court of Common Pleas. 

Plaintiff Eugene Brown was attending a group exercise class at Advance Fitness in August 2019, where the instructor directed the attendants to begin a round of box jumps. When Brown placed his foot on the box, it moved due to being unsecured on the floor, the suit says.

As a result, Brown slipped off the box and fell, sustaining injuries including a right triceps tear, the suit says.

The plaintiff is suing Advance Fitness for one count of negligence for his medical expenses, as well as physical and mental suffering. 

Brown is represented by Kenneth R. Schuster and Associates PC of Media.
