Car accident 43

PITTSBURGH — A McDonald's customer is suing truck owner Alan Michael Zatek and restaurant operator Merg-Nik Inc., citing alleged negligence.

Barbara Muntan filed a complaint June 12 in the Allegheny County Courts of Common Pleas, alleging that Merg-Nik failed to maintain a safe parking area.

According to the complaint, Muntan allegedly fell and was hit by Zatek's truck at the Monongahela McDonald's location on Feb. 22, resulting in multiple fractures.

Muntan said Zatek allegedly was driving too fast in the parking lot, failed to keep a proper lookout and negligently ran her over with his truck.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks a judgment against the defendants in excess of $35,000. She is represented by Edward Balzarini Jr. of Balzarini & Watson in Pittsburgh.
