A woman in Denver, Colorado, USA, recently drove her dog to Starbucks, a coffee shop chain, and bought a cup of hot tea through the Drive-Thru driveway. As a result, the hot tea was poured directly on the woman's thigh and on the dog lying on the thigh. Although the woman was not life-threatening after being sent to the hospital, she needed skin grafting, while her dog was scalded too seriously. Died shortly after being sent to hospital. Deanna Salas-Solano, a 58-year-old woman, accused the Starbucks clerk of bringing her a cup on September 27 the year before last. The lid of the cup was not closed at all, nor did she use an outer cup cover or double paper cups. She recently formally appointed a lawyer to sue Starbucks for US $75000 (about NT $2.273 million) in compensation to fight for her rights and interests. But Starbucks denied all the charges and claimed that he had a key video clip in his hand, "sufficient to prove that these allegations are not true", although the clip was not released, and Starbucks stressed in a statement that "we look forward to presenting the evidence in court." The trial of the case will begin soon.
