Hi
In case you want to escalate this matter, you can file a police complaint / or an FIR. However the same will have extreme consequences for the kid.
Feel free to get in touch to discuss further.

Section 320 of the IPC which defines grievous hurt covers the type of injury that has been caused to the gentleman.

File a police complaint immediately with the concerned police station stating the incident.

Claim damages for treatment by filing a civil suit.

If there is a fracture then he has committed grievous hurt punishable under section 325 IPC. You should immediately approach the police station of your area and try to register a FIR against the culprit. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.
