The parents of a four-year-old who was burned by a McDonald’s chicken nugget were awarded $800,000 after suing the franchise for $15m for injuries caused by the accident.
In 2019, an “unreasonably and dangerously” hot McNugget allegedly burned the then-four-year-old daughter Olivia of Philana Holmes and Humberto Caraballo Estevez. The piece of chicken fell onto the young girl’s lap, resulting in a second-degree burn, the lawsuit, filed in Florida, claimed.
