CA man sues after claiming to find condom in soup
SANTA ANA, Calif. - A 50-year-old California man says he ordered French onion soup and bit into a condom instead of melted cheese.
Zdenek Philip Hodousek of Mission Viejo sued a local Claim Jumper restaurant Tuesday in Orange County Superior Court. He is seeking unspecified damages.
Hodousek's attorney, Eric Traut, says his client wants restaurant employees' DNA tested to find a match to female DNA allegedly found on the condom.
A public relations firm representing Claim Jumper says an internal probe revealed no employee wrongdoing.
The firm says Hodousek took the so-called "foreign object" found in his soup with him, and there is no proof it is the same item later submitted to a lab for testing.
