A lawsuit over an explosion at a Pennsylvania chocolate factory says the candy-maker ignored warnings of a gas leak. The lawsuit was filed by the family of one of seven workers killed in an explosion last month.
A Pennsylvania candy-maker ignored warnings of a gas leak at its chocolate factory and bears responsibility for a subsequent explosion that killed seven workers and injured several others, according to a lawsuit filed Tuesday.
Workers smelled gas that day and notified Palmer, but the 75-year-old, family-owned company “did nothing,” the lawsuit said. The lawsuit, filed in Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, also names gas utility UGI. Messages were sent to Palmer and UGI seeking comment.
