PITTSBURGH – An Allegheny County man alleges he sustained a vertebrae fracture and other injures when he and his wife were assaulted at a Pittsburgh McDonald's by three of the restaurant's employees.
Mark Conn filed a complaint Dec. 11 in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County against McDonald's Corp. and Santonastasso Enterprises LLC, doing business as McDonald's Restaurant, alleging negligence.
The suit states the plaintiff and his wife were at a McDonald's on Wood Street in Pittsburgh on Nov. 4. Conn alleges that while eating at the restaurant, he and his wife were stalked and harassed by a male friend of one of the employees, which then led to them being assaulted outside the restaurant by the male and three McDonald's employees, including one who had a previous criminal conviction of violent assault.
During the assault, Conn alleges he suffered a fractured vertebrae, quadriplegia, quadriparesis, traumatic brain injury and paralysis.
Conn seeks monetary relief, trial by jury and all other just relief. He is represented by William Goodrich, Joshua Geist and Bianca DiNardo of Goodrich & Geist PC in Pittsburgh.
