On Friday, May 19, 2017, at approximately 9:48am, an employee was driving her car on her rural delivery route when the car overheated. She parked the vehicle, got out, and attempted to raise the hood when hot antifreeze spewed out of the front grill and burned her from the waist down and on both wrists. She suffered second degree burns and was hospitalized. |
