A lawsuit is seeking class action status in connection to the Givaudan Sense Colour factory explosion.
Charles Fowler said he was driving for DoorDash when the blast happened, sending shockwaves through his car and triggering his PTSD from his military service in Iraq. He said he has suffered lost wages and has sought medical treatment for his PTSD.
The lawsuit claims Givaudan was warned days before the blast by employees that Cooker #6 was overheating, wasn’t being properly ventilated and was at risk of exploding. The lawsuit accuses Givaudan of failing to act and not following industry standards for safety protocols.
Two employees were killed, and 11 others were hurt in the blast. Homes and cars around the Clifton neighborhood also suffered damage.
Besides seeking class action status, the lawsuit also asks for compensation for property damage, medical bills, lost income and court cost.
