The family of an Arby’s manager is suing the fast food chain for $1 million weeks after their loved one froze to death while locked inside an allegedly broken freezer.
Manager Nguyet Le, 63, of Houston, was found dead on May 11 at the Arby’s location in New Iberia, Louisiana, according to court documents. Le’s body was found by her son, who also worked at the store.
A lawyer for the family said that they filed the lawsuit after the fast food chain hadn’t responded to multiple inquiries into Le’s death. “Her getting caught into this freezer and trying to beat on the door until her hands were bloody. There was blood all over the door and then she collapsed into a fetal position before freezing face-first to the floor,” the lawyer continued.
A former employee said that the broken freezer latch had been an issue since last August, according to court filings.
