George Latorre is suing American Airlines for allegedly spilling scalding coffee on his left arm during a flight from Vietnam to NYC, causing second-degree burns, blistering, peeling, and bleeding. The lawsuit claims that Latorre may suffer permanent "cosmetic deformity and scarring" and is experiencing "extreme pain and suffering, emotional harm, mental anguish, and distress."
