BRANSON, Mo. — A woman is suing the owners of a McDonald’s in Branson after hot tea she ordered from the fast food restaurant spilled and caused severe burns.

Nicole Lind, born 1982, is suing 3 Ruprecht Sons LLC, both of Branson, for injuries in Taney County Circuit Court.

Court documents say the incident occurred on March 16, 2023, when Lind ordered food and hot tea in the drive-thru at McDonald’s on W. 76 Country Boulevard.

When the woman parked her vehicle in the restaurant’s parking lot to eat her meal, she grabbed the cup of hot tea and the lid fell off.
