Best Answer

Individuals do not file or "press" criminal charges. Only the state, through the prosecuting attorney, can do this.

If a person believes a crime has been committed, he or she can contact the police and make a report. The police will then investigate the accusations and process them as necessary.

Being hurt in an altercation is not a defense to criminal charges stemming from the altercation.

If someones child gets hurt on someone elses property who has to pay the charges?

Medical insurance covers accidental injury. It does not matter where your child gets hurt. Simply being the owner of a property does not automatically make one liable for everything that occurs on the property. If you feel the property owner was the cause or somehow responsible or otherwise liable for your child's injury you could file a suit against the property owner.
