A woman has sued a Norristown, Pa., furniture store after she lost her apartment because of a bedbug infestation, the Times Herald reported Saturday.
Robin Boyd said that furniture she leased from Aarons Sales & Lease contained the bedbugs.
Boyd says she was bitten after taking a nap on bedroom furniture she'd just leased and that the store refused to cancel the lease agreement when she complained.
The report said the infestation caused her to miss work and she eventually lost her job. Boyd is suing for medical treatment, the loss of wages and her belongings.
