A lawsuit goes to trial in Dayton(Ohio) in which a woman claims a mouse ran across her arm in a local restaurant, traumatizing her to the point where she no longer has a social life.

It happened on August ninth, 2001, in a Frisch's Big Boy restaurant in the Dayton suburb of Kettering.

Sixty-eight-year-old Mary Lauricella was waiting for her chocolate sundae when she felt something on her arm and saw it was a mouse. She started screaming and flailing her arms and the mouse scurried off.

Lauricella's lawyer says she has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder.

He says she has had nightmares, difficulty sleeping and difficulty concentrating, and has become withdrawn socially.

An attorney for the restaurant says it exercised ordinary care with respect to mouse control, having hired a professional mouse and insect prevention service that visited the restaurant at least twice a month and two weeks before the day the woman visited the restaurant.
