Oregon Worker Glued to Floor Sues General Contractor

A worker who says he strained himself when he was accidentally glued to the floor at a Lake Oswego, Ore., remodeling job is suing the general contractor.

Another subcontractor had removed the carpet but not the glue at the office building in June 2012 and Buckley R. Purdy says he strained both knees and his hip getting out of the sticky situation.

The Oregonian reports Purdy is seeking nearly $1 million in the lawsuit filed this week in Multnomah County Circuit Court.
