Florida Man Sues Dunkin' Over Injuries Following Toilet Explosion

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A customer has filed a negligence lawsuit against Dunkin’, claiming he was injured by an exploding toilet at one of the coffee chain’s locations in central Florida.

Paul Kerouac is seeking more than $100,000 in a lawsuit filed Wednesday in state court in Orlando, claiming he suffered “severe and long term injuries” following the explosion of a toilet in the men’s room of a Dunkin’ location in Winter Park, Florida, a year ago.

After the explosion left Kerouac covered in human feces, urine and debris, he walked out of the men’s room seeking help from workers and the store’s manager, according to the lawsuit. An employee told him that they were aware of the “problem with the toilet” since there had been previous incidents, the lawsuit says, without diving into further details about the explosion.

When contacted Thursday by email for more details on Kerouac’s injuries, his attorney, Scott Spradley, said he was tied up and couldn’t answer the questions until the following day. The Canton, Massachusetts-based company did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

The lawsuit says Kerouac suffered “bodily injury,” and he has required mental health care and counseling since the incident in January 2022.

Alabama Man Shocks Shoppers With X-Rated Plunge Into Bass Pro Shop Aquarium

LEEDS, Alabama (AP) — A man crashed his car outside a Bass Pro Shop in Alabama, stripped down to his birthday suit and plunged into the giant aquarium inside the store, police said.

The ordeal happened Thursday night in front of shocked shoppers in the town just outside Birmingham, Leeds Police Chief Paul Irwin said.

The 42-year-old Alabama man did a “cannonball” leap into the aquarium and then stood under a waterfall. He left the water to yell at two officers, then dove back into the aquarium, police said.

The man eventually climbed over the side of the aquarium and fell to the concrete floor below. Police then apprehended him, the news site Al.com reported.

The man was in the water for about five minutes before officers arrived, Irwin said.

6-Legged Spaniel Has Extra Limbs Removed

LONDON (AP) — A spaniel born with six legs that was found abandoned in a supermarket parking lot is now like other dogs after having her extra limbs surgically removed.

Ariel, who was named for “The Little Mermaid” character because the additional appendage with two paws on the end looked like a flipper, ran through the grass outside a veterinary hospital Saturday as she adjusted to life on four legs.

“She is doing brilliantly,” said Vicki Black, director of the Langford Vets Small Animal Referral Hospital, where she was operated on Thursday.

The dog, who had multiple birth defects, was found in the center of Pembroke, Wales, in September. Greenacres Rescue took her in and raised funds for her surgery.

Black said the hospital, which is part of the University of Bristol, had never seen a six-legged dog or performed such an operation.

“Ariel was a complicated little dog,” Black said. “We are a center committed to career-long learning and are proud to innovate and treat pets like Ariel.”

The extra legs extended from the right hindquarter and appeared to be of no use, dangling beside her wagging tail, as she walked a bit awkwardly in a video shot before the operation.

On Saturday as she was discharged, she took to the lawn outside the hospital with the determination of a bird dog, nose to the ground and pulling on her leash. Just like any other dog.

Utah Teen Facing Charges After Allegedly Taping Fish To ATMs

Gill-ty as charged?

A teenage boy in Provo, Utah, is facing charges after allegedly taping fish to various ATMs in the city ― and even a police car.

And, of course, the fishy behavior was all documented on social media.

Authorities at the Provo Police Department alleged that the unnamed 17-year-old was responsible for about a dozen fish-taping incidents between August and October, according to Salt Lake City Fox affiliate KSTU.

One photo showed three fish taped to a police car, according to Salt Lake City ABC affiliate KTVX.

Authorities told KSTU they suspected the fish taping was done in innocent fun, but charged the teen with two misdemeanor counts of causing property damage back in December, mainly because cleaning up the fish carcasses off cars and ATMs started to cost money.

After the teen was referred to juvenile court, the case was officially closed, according to Salt Lake City NBC affiliate KSL TV.

Officials told the station they did not know where the teen got the fish.

The fish-taping photos were uploaded to an Instagram account titled “fish_bandit84,” which has the tagline, “Live, laugh, tape fish on ATMs” and promises, “No fish were harmed in the process.”

Florida Woman Seeks Class-Action Suit Against Reese's Over Faceless Pumpkins

A woman in Tampa Bay, Florida, is seeking class-action status for a lawsuit against the Hershey Co. after the packaging for its Peanut Butter Pumpkins left a sour taste in her mouth.

Cynthia Kelly filed a proposed class-action complaint in federal court on Thursday accusing the company of ”falsely” representing some of its Reese’s Peanut Butter products, according to the CBS affiliate WTSP-TV in Tampa.

The woman’s beef with the candy started in October when she paid $4.49 for a pack of the pumpkin-shaped Reese’s at an Aldi grocery store because she assumed “the product contained a cute looking carving of a pumpkin’s mouth and eyes as pictured on the product packaging,” the filing said.

Upon opening one of the treats, she discovered the product was fully covered with chocolate with none of the detailed carving she claimed inspired her to buy the product.

Kelly said she never would have purchased the pumpkins had she known they were just pumpkin-shaped Reese’s and didn’t have the pumpkin face.

Kelly’s petition accuses Hershey of trying to convince people to buy the pumpkin peanut butter candy “by means of untrue, misleading, deceptive, and/or fraudulent” representations.

But Kelly isn’t stopping with pumpkins.

Reuters noted that her lawsuit would seek damages for all Floridians who purchased the “deceptive” products, including White Ghost, Peanut Butter Bats and Peanut Butter Footballs. In seeking class-action status, the filing claimed damages would exceed $5 million.

HuffPost reached out to Hershey for comment, but no one immediately responded. A company spokesperson told Fox Business it does not comment on pending litigation.

Although Kelly is the first person to sue Hershey regarding the lack of a face on the actual Reese’s pumpkins, she’s not the first to gripe about it.

One YouTube video from 2019 cited in Kelly’s lawsuit calls the design of the Reese’s pumpkins a “monstrosity” but admits the taste is “quite nice.”
