California woman sues JC Penney after run-in with legless mannequin allegedly left her injuredLOS ANGELES, Aug. 18, 2006 A woman is suing the J.C. Penney Co. after an alleged run-in with a store mannequin that she says left her with a cracked tooth, a bloodied head and recurring shoulder pain.Diana Newton, 51, of Westminster sued the Texas-based retailer last month in Orange County Superior Court, claiming she was cracked in the head by a legless female dummy at its Westminster Mall store.Newton said the incident happened nearly a year ago in the women's department, as she was shopping for a blouse. The only one in her size was on the mannequin. As a salesclerk was removing the garment, the dummy's arm flew off and struck Newton's head, according to her lawsuit."I felt a burning sensation," she recalled.Paramedics treated her bleeding scalp at the scene. Newton drove herself home, then had someone take her to a hospital for further treatment.The blow also cracked a molar, which led to a root canal, she said.The suit seeks unspecified damages.A spokeswoman for J.C. Penney said the company doesn't comment on pending litigation.

If I were J.C. Penny I would comment on this one, and I can't believe the woman had the nerve to sue because the whole thing makes her look ridiculous.

I always thought mannequins were like the one that Kim Cattrall played in the movie.

I guess some are really mean.
