A Florida jury has awarded an eight-year-old girl $800,000 (£622,000) in damages after she was severely burned when a McDonald’s Chicken McNugget fell on her leg.
The “dangerously hot” McNugget burned Olivia Caraballo in 2019, then four, as she opened her Happy Meal in the car at a McDonald’s drive-thru in Tamarac, Florida.
Her family had sought $15m in damages.
A jury in May found McDonald’s and its franchise liable for the injury.
