HUNTINGTON -- A Huntington man is suing Long John Silver's after he fell on its premises.
Performance Food Corp. was also named as a defendant in the suit.
On Aug. 18, 2009, Danny Ray Gorrell slipped and fell due to an unknown substance on the floor of the defendants' premises, according to a complaint filed Aug. 18 in Cabell Circuit Court.

The case has been assigned to Circuit Judge F. Jane Hustead.
