2025年12月1日,備受中國社會關注的「長春高空拋物致死案」民事案件,在長春市朝陽區人民法院再次開庭審理。被害人家屬將萬達集團、相關物業公司以及夜市管理方等涉事單位列為被告,要求其對安全保障責任承擔法律責任並賠償經濟損失。

案件的背景令人痛心。2023年6月22日,28歲女子娄某在長春紅旗街萬達廣場夜市遭周某從高樓拋下的磚塊擊中,不幸身亡。事發當時,周某在短短6天內,多次從高樓拋擲磚塊、桶裝水、可樂等物品,共造成1人死亡、2人受傷。經司法鑑定,周某具有完全刑事責任能力,其作案動機為厭世情緒的蓄意行為。2024年10月,周某被依法執行死刑,案件得到刑事處理。

然而,悲劇的延續引發民事訴訟。被害人家屬認為,萬達集團、物業公司以及夜市管理方未盡到充分的安全管理義務,未能防範高空拋物風險,因而於2025年9月首次提起民事訴訟,索賠金額超過200萬元人民幣。2025年12月1日,案件二次開庭審理,三被告方均否認責任。法院當庭未作出判決,但表示正積極推動調解程序。萬達方面初步表達了調解意願,而其他被告方尚未明確回應。被害人家屬在訴訟中強調,訴訟的目的並非僅僅是獲得賠償,更重要的是促使涉事單位正視自身管理漏洞,承擔社會責任,防止類似悲劇再次發生。這起案件也引起了公眾對高空拋物問題的廣泛關注,提醒社會加強安全監管,保障市民頭頂安全。

案件細節顯示,在事發短短6天內,周某從32樓拋下兩桶5升桶裝水、三罐可樂以及八塊磚頭,最終砸中3人,其中28歲女律師娄某不幸身亡。肇事者已被依法處決,而家屬針對萬達物業、夜市等單位提起的民事訴訟,也在12月1日再次開庭審理,引發社會各界對城市安全管理責任和防範高空拋物的討論。

On December 1, 2025, the civil case related to the highly publicized “Changchun High-Altitude Object Dropping Death” was once again heard at the Chaoyang District People’s Court in Changchun. The victim’s family has filed a lawsuit against Wanda Group, the property management company, and the night market management, demanding that these parties bear legal responsibility for safety oversight and compensate for economic losses.

The background of the case is tragic. On June 22, 2023, 28-year-old lawyer Lou was killed at the Wanda Plaza night market on Hongqi Street in Changchun when she was struck by a brick thrown from a high-rise by a man named Zhou. During a period of just six days, Zhou repeatedly dropped bricks, 5-liter water buckets, and cans of cola from a high floor, resulting in one death and two injuries. Judicial evaluation confirmed that Zhou had full criminal responsibility, and his actions were deliberate, motivated by suicidal and nihilistic sentiments. In October 2024, Zhou was lawfully executed, and the criminal case was concluded.

Following this tragedy, the victim’s family initiated civil proceedings. They argued that Wanda Group, the property management company, and the night market organizers failed to exercise sufficient safety management and did not prevent the risk of high-altitude object dropping. The family first filed the civil lawsuit in September 2025, seeking over 2 million RMB in damages. On December 1, 2025, the case was heard for the second time. All three defendants denied responsibility. The court did not issue a verdict at the hearing but indicated that mediation efforts were ongoing. Wanda initially expressed willingness to participate in mediation, while the other defendants have yet to respond clearly.

The victim’s family emphasized that the purpose of the lawsuit is not only to seek compensation but also to compel the involved parties to acknowledge management shortcomings, assume social responsibility, and prevent similar tragedies from occurring in the future. The case has sparked broad public attention on the issue of high-altitude object dropping and highlighted the need for stricter safety supervision to protect citizens.

Case details reveal that within six days, Zhou threw two 5-liter water buckets, three cans of cola, and eight bricks from the 32nd floor, striking three people, including the 28-year-old lawyer Lou, who tragically lost her life. While the perpetrator has been executed, the civil lawsuit filed by the victim’s family against Wanda, the property management, and the night market continues to be heard, generating widespread discussion about urban safety responsibilities and measures to prevent high-altitude object dropping.
