The mother of a boy who died after falling into a grease trap in Rochester, New York, is filing suit against the city of Rochester and Monroe County. The woman recently filed notices of claim with both parties, signaling a lawsuit may be coming. The 3-year-old boy drowned in a grease trap at the University Avenue Tim Hortons in July. The mother alleges the city and county were responsible for the child's wrongful death and were negligent in their management of the grease trap, which was not bolted in place.

A man from Green, Ohio, died after his vehicle ran all night in his carport. The 94-year-old man died in his sleep when his car, which had a keyless ignition, remained running and filled his home with carbon monoxide. His family has filed suit against Toyota, the maker of the man's car, which did not include an emergency shutoff feature. Reports show that 34 people with keyless ignitions have died of carbon monoxide poisoning since 2006 after failing to turn off their vehicle.
