Lawsuit:
Today a $100,000 suit was filed against Amburn’s Produce Market for causing an accident by leaving green beens on the floor.
Elli Mason broke her hip on the slippery beans April 1st of this year. Mason had to pay medical expenses while suffering from the physical and mental injuries. Amburn’s Market was charged with negligence in Circuit Court and hopes to never spill the beans again.
Nice joke. That would make a better kicker for the whole piece as opposed to the end of the 2nd graf, where you’re still trying to get across substantive information. Typos, AP style errors (why the letter O for zero?). And misspelling the subject’s name is a cardinal sin in journalism. 2/5.
