An Inglewood couple is suing JetBlue following an incident where a watermelon-sized block of ice crashed through their ceiling during a flight's approach to LAX. The lawsuit claims that JetBlue was aware of issues with a valve that likely contributed to the incident and had previously caused another block of ice to damage a home in Massachusetts. The couple seeks $1 million in damages due to the emotional distress and disruption in their lives caused by the situation. They now feel the need to relocate from their home due to safety concerns with overhead flights.
"JETBLUE had been on notice for months prior to January 1, 2024, yet failed to conduct an investigation as to the problems with the potable water system value and drain. Had JETBLUE done so..."
"We heard an explosion, basically," the homeowner told CBS News after the August 2023 incident, saying he thought the house was struck by lightning. "The loudest pop, bang I've ever heard."
