Man: Santa Ponsa trip grounded by stair slip
William Busteed was at home on Saturday, May 9, 2009, and had âa couple of small bottles of Budweiserâ as he got ready for his trip. He denied defence claims he was incapacitated due to intoxication at the time.
Before describing his fall on what he said was a wet stairwell, Mr Busteed went into some detail about the smoke alarm. He said that the alarm in the six-unit complex went off on average twice a week. He said when this occurred, vents in the ceiling over the stairwell opened and let rain in until they were closed by a council official.
