A man says that a casino employee at Maryland Live! Casino in Hanover, Md., spun a roulette wheel so hard that the ball flew up and hit him above the eye, and is suing the casino for $300,000.

The Annapolis Capital Gazette reports that the man, Leander Stocks, actually sued last November, but refiled Friday after a judge denied casino owner The Cordish Cos.’ motion to dismiss the suit.

Stocks said in the complaint that around midnight on Dec. 15, 2013, a casino employee was “negligently” operating the roulette wheel, causing the ball to become airborne and hit Stocks above his left eye at “high velocity.” As if that wasn’t bad enough, Stocks was taken to a private room where a security guard put “unidentified liquid drops” in his eye “without warning or consent.” After receiving the eye drops, Stocks said he “became disoriented, fell forward, hit his head against a door, and lost consciousness.” Ouch. He was taken to an emergency room and treated for a concussion.

The Cordish Cos. asked to have the suit dismissed because, it says, it doesn’t own the casino where the incident occurred. U.S. District Judge Amit P. Mehta noted on Friday that Cordish’s own website says it owns and operates casinos across the country, and Gazette reporter Ben Weathers noted that the casino’s Website says it’s owned by Cordish. So it really seems like Cordish Cos. does own the casino.

Cordish also motioned to dismiss the case because it was filed in D.C. and it said it does not do business in the District. Mehta said that the casino advertises in the District, which is enough to conclude that Maryland Live! does, in fact, do business in D.C.

According to the Post, since then, Stocks has continued to have “bouts of blurred vision, occasional loss of coordination and regular episodes of post-traumatic headaches.”
