Man Files $10M Lawsuit Over Exploding Portable Toilet

POSTED: 11:29 am EDT June 3, 2005

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- John Jenkins wants $10 million because of an exploding john.

He's suing Chisler, a general contractor, and the Eastern Associated Coal Corp.

Jenkins claimed he sat down in a portable toilet, tried to light a cigarette and the whole thing blew up. The suit noted there were no warning signs against smoking or open flames.

Eastern Associated Coal owns the West Virginia property where the explosion occurred. The suit charges Chisler with running over pipelines with heavy equipment before the incident, causing a methane gas leak.

Jenkins claimed permanent injuries from the potty blast.
