A Greensburg woman is filing a lawsuit against Live Casino Pittsburgh after she was reportedly sickened when an overhead sewage pipe burst while inside the establishment.
The incident occurred on the evening of September 12th, when the woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, was visiting the casino with friends. According to her attorney, John Smith, the woman was walking through the gaming floor when she suddenly felt something wet and foul-smelling fall onto her head. Upon looking up, she realized that a sewage pipe located above her had burst, showering her with waste water and debris.
The woman immediately sought medical attention and was diagnosed with E. coli exposure, as well as a severe respiratory infection from inhaling contaminated water droplets. She has since been treated for her illnesses but continues to suffer from lingering symptoms.
Smith stated that his client’s health has deteriorated significantly since the incident and that she has incurred substantial medical expenses as a result. The lawsuit against Live Casino Pittsburgh seeks compensation for her medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages due to her inability to work while recovering.
In response to the lawsuit, Live Casino Pittsburgh released a statement expressing their regret for the incident and assuring that they are taking steps to ensure the safety and well-being of all patrons. The casino has reportedly conducted a thorough inspection of their facilities and is making necessary repairs to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
The lawsuit raises concerns about the importance of proper maintenance and inspection of sewage systems in public establishments, as well as the responsibility of businesses to protect their customers from potential harm. The woman’s case serves as a reminder of the potential health hazards that can arise from negligence in maintaining essential infrastructure.
As the legal proceedings move forward, the Greensburg woman continues to recover from her ordeal, hoping to receive the justice and compensation she deserves for the harm caused to her health and well-being. The outcome of this case will undoubtedly have significant implications for the responsibility of businesses in ensuring the safety of their patrons.
