The 17-year-olds, Jacob Hourmouzus and Jacob Schneider, were trying to rescue a dog that fell into the canal when they were electrocuted as they reached up to grab the bridge to pull themselves up.
The claim alleges that the bridge and canal are dangerous and that the bridge was electrically energized as a result of faulty equipment.
