Royal Caribbean said a northern Indiana man knew that a cruise ship window was open before he picked up his granddaughter, lost his grip, and dropped her to her death in July.

The family of Chloe Wiegand, who was 18 months old when she died, has sued the cruise operator, alleging the company should have placed warning signs in front of the open window. The girl fell about 150 feet on a docked Royal Caribbean Cruise ship in July in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
