CLEARWATER — A customer is suing Chick-fil-A, alleging negligence led to injuries to the plaintiff.
Shirley Scheer filed a complaint Dec. 4 in Pinellas County Circuit Court against Chick-fil-A, alleging, failure to maintain its restaurant in a reasonably safe condition.
According to the complaint, on Feb. 28, Scheer was a business invitee of Chick-fil-A at 10075 Ulmerton Road in Largo. The suit says she slipped and fell on a wet substance on the Chick-fil-A floor, leading to injuries in and about her body and extremities.
