Parents of boy who fell into gorilla enclosure defend themselves

This is the first picture of parents accused of neglect after their son fell into a gorilla's enclosure forcing workers to shoot the 'gentle giant' dead.
Mother Michelle Gregg, 32, reportedly has four children to father Deonne Dickerson, 37.
Yesterday police confirmed they are investigating whether to charge them with neglect after their four-year-old boy fell into the cage of 17-year-old Harambe.

Zoo staff shot the endangered primate, sparking fury amongst animal lovers.But footage later appeared to show the 'gentle giant' trying to protect the boy.

 Michelle Gregg later defended her actions on Facebook in a post claiming "accidents can happen."

She said: "I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers today. What started off as a wonderful day turned into a scary one.
"For those of you that have seen the news or been on social media that was my son that fell in the gorilla exhibit at the zoo. God protected my child until the authorities were able to get to him.
"My son is safe and was able to walk away with a concussion and a few scrapes... no broken bones or internal injuries.

"As a society we are quick to judge how a parent could take their eyes off of their child and if anyone knows me I keep a tight watch on my kids. Accidents happen but I am thankful that the right people were in the right place today."
