McDonald's Lawsuit: Woman Claims Glass Found Inside Sandwich

EXTRA CRUNCHY: Woman Claims She Found Glass Inside McDonald's Sandwich

A woman filed a lawsuit Friday against a southwest suburban McDonald's after she allegedly found something extra crunchy in her chicken sandwich: glass.

Vjollca Lecaj filed the suit in Cook County Circuit court, claiming that she bit and chewed into a shard of glass that was inside her spicy McChicken sandwich last summer, CBS Chicago reports.

The suit claims Lecaj suffered "severe and permanent oral injuries as well as great pain and anguish."

Lecaj claims the Oak Lawn restaurant failed to properly inspect and maintain the processing and cooking equipment.

Lecaj is seeking more than $600,000 in damages, according to WLS-AM. Representatives from the Oak Brook- based McDonald's Corporation were not immediately available for comment, the station reports.
