Woman Claims Buttocks Burned on Toilet

Here's a strange one. A Kansas woman who claims her buttocks were burned by cleaning fluid when she sat on a toilet seat at a Lake Saint Louis Denny's restaurant has sued the chain and the franchise owner.

Kathleen Williams of Leavenworth County alleges that she had to be taken to a hospital after she used the toilet, she did not see the chemical cleaner on the seat but felt it burn when she sat down.

It also details that Williams, a nurse with the Army, suffered serious and permanent injuries. "Sadly, as a result of the chemical injury, nerves were injured that create a sensation of pain 24 hours a day", said her lawyer, Pedro Irigonegaray. Because of her injuries, he said Williams has to take pain medication and wear undergarments designed for burn victims.

The suit seeks more than $25,000 in damages and alleges that Denny's employees were negligent in their use of the chemicals and their failure to warn customers of the danger.
