Cheating II
John Bradley Kane, 55, sued the Hooters restaurant in Madeira Beach, Fla., because, he says, the “O” fell off the company’s sign in November 2017 and hit his foot, causing injury. He asked for insurance benefits to the tune of $225,000 for medical expenses, and pain and suffering. It’s not likely he’ll collect: surveillance video shows that the “O” was blown down by Hurricane Irma the month before, and was still laying on the ground when Kane found it — the video even shows him picking it up and carrying it to the door. Kane was arrested and charged with insurance fraud. (RC/Miami Herald) ...Told there was video evidence against him, all Kane could say is “O.”Original Publication Date: 06 May 2018
