    A Webb County woman has filed a suit on behalf of her four minor children after their father died in a helicopter crash.

    Lidia E. Sanchez says Ezequiel Cantu Jr. was about seven minutes into a flight in a Sikorsky S-76C helicopter when it crashed in a swamp near Morgan City, La., on Jan. 4.

    At the time of the crash, the helicopter was chartered to Shell Oil Co. and was being used to transport Shell employees to an oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico.

    Included as defendants in the suit are helicopter owners PHI and Petroleum Helicopters, Aeronautical Accessories, helicopter designer Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, Kim Martin as personal representative of the estate of Vyarl Martin and Ann L.

  • Richard Stubbs vs. Sonic Drive In No. 1017 et al

    PA - Mark Sparks, J - Gary Sanderson

    A Jefferson County man has filed suit against a fast food chain and one of its employees, alleging his existing back problems were aggravated when his supervisor forced him to get on his hands and knees to clean a deep fryer.

    Richard Stubbs, who worked at Sonic Drive In, claims his supervisor, Lynn Jackson, told him to clean out a filter on a deep fryer on Feb. 22.

    "Ms. Jackson told him to 'get down there and pull that out' despite her knowing that Mr. Stubbs suffered from prior back problems," the suit states.

    Because he cleaned the filter, Stubbs injured his back and complained to Jackson. However, Jackson would not allow Stubbs to go home, which further aggravated his back problem, the complaint says.

    "As a result, Mr. Stubbs injured and/or aggravated the L5 disc/nerve root in his lower back resulting in permanent and debilitating injuries as well as medical expenses," the suit states.
