McDonald's Faces Lawsuit Over Woman's Severe Burns from Hot Coffee
McDonald's is facing another lawsuit over a hot coffee spill, reminiscent of the infamous 1992 case. An 85-year-old woman alleges that she suffered first- and second-degree burns after being handed a cup with an improperly secured lid at a San Francisco drive-through. The lawsuit claims that McDonald's employees refused to help her, and she had to seek medical attention on her own. The incident left her with scarring, ongoing physical and emotional pain, and significant medical expenses. This is not the first time McDonald's has faced complaints regarding hot food items, and the plaintiff hopes the case prompts the company to reconsider the high temperatures of its food.
