Bartender’s Joke Went Awry, Woman Says

OMAHA (CN) - A woman says she was severely burned when a bartender, "in a botched attempt at entertainment," set 151-proof alcohol on fire as he spit it from his mouth, which "set the bar area and its patrons on fire." She sued the Naughty Lounge & Grill in Douglas County Court.

Melissa Mora says she was "severely burned about the face and arm," and suffered pain, scarring and disfigurement. She and her husband are represented by James Martin Davis.
