'Probable source' is iceberg lettuce at N. Ogden eatery

Wendy's restaurant chain is being sued by a Weber County family after the Weber-Morgan Health Department identified a North Ogden Wendy's as the probable link in four confirmed E. coli infections in June.
Seattle law firm Marler Clark and Salt Lake attorney Todd Gardner filed the lawsuit Friday in Weber County District Court on behalf of William and J. Corey Cohron and their two sons.
According to William Marler, the complaint seeks "compensation for the family's significant medical-related expenses, economic losses, pain and suffering and emotional distress."
On Aug. 7 the Weber Morgan Health Department said that four people had contracted E. coli, three of them developing the more severe hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Health officials said the "probable source" was iceberg lettuce served between June 27 and June 30 by the Wendy's restaurant at 2500 N. 400 East in North Ogden. One of the four cases was determined to be a secondary transmission from someone who reported being infected during a conference in which two of the confirmed cases may have gotten the infection. The Wendy's restaurant was a caterer for the conference.The complaint filed by Marler Clark says that Corey Cohron ate a Wendy's salad at the conference and later became ill with symptoms of E. coli infection, including diarrhea. Other family members subsequently developed symptoms as well, most of them not requiring medical treatment. But Wil Cohron, 7, suffered severe infection and was taken to an emergency room July 12. He was in the hospital for two days. He later was rehospitalized and tested positive for E. coli.Three of the four confirmed cases developed HUS, according to Weber-Morgan health officials.No spokesman for Wendy's corporate office returned calls from the Deseret Morning News Friday and Wendy's attorney was not available to comment.E-mail: lois@desnews.com
