The Journal Times reports that 2 Racine County residents have fallen ill with salmonella. This marks 28 people who now are confirmed for the infection. The salmonella outbreak is linked to a Kenosha restaurant.

Some of the patrons have decided to sue for damages, including reimbursements for their hospital bills. According to the Journal-Times, "That includes Tanja Dzinovic, a Pleasant Prairie woman who last week sued the owners of the Baker Street Restaurant & Pub, 6208 Green Bay Road."

So far, there has been no luck in connecting the foodborne illness outbreak to any particular food. The health department forced the resaurant to close, but it has since reopened. 

Defective food products can cause you to become seriously ill. If you or someone you know has become ill as the result of a defective food product, contact the Kenosha Defective Food Products Attorneys at Habush Habush & Rottier, S.C., by dialing 1-800-2-HABUSH.
