When it rains, it pours

A man is suing the leasing agent of the Ogilvie train station after a slip and fall resulting from a leak in the roof.

According to the complaint, on September 14, 2008, it was raining heavily in downtown Chicago and water leaked onto the floor from the roof, causing plaintiff Dale Blackwell to slip and fall and become injured.  There were no signs indicating that the floor was wet, the complaint states.

This is not the first time the leasing agent has been sued for a slip and fall in Ogilvie train station due to a leaking roof and wet floor.  Plaintiff's attorney obtained a settlement this past February for another individual under similar circumstances at the same station.  Read about it here.
