Former Philadelphia Flyers' Trainers Sue Comcast, Others After Dual Cancer Diagnoses
Two former trainers for the Flyers are suing the team's ownership group after both of them received eerily identical diagnoses only months apart. Jim McCrossin, Director of Medical Services, and Sal Raffa, assistant athletic trainer both allege they were unknowingly exposed to dangerous carcinogens emitted from Zamboni's at the team's practice facility.
Anthony SanFilippo has the full story here:
This is incredibly sad.
Both of these men worked for the team for more than a decade & now have incurable conditions.
The suit contains various details outlining the nature of the issue, including poor ventilation, malpractice, & negligence among others.
Our thoughts are with Mr. McCrossin & Mr. Raffa at this time.
