A woman who was shot in the leg during a Chicago White Sox game last year has filed a lawsuit against the team and the Illinois Sports Facility Authority, which owns Guaranteed Rate Field. The lawsuit, filed in Illinois state court, seeks damages exceeding $50,000. The plaintiff claims that the White Sox and the stadium owners acted with 'an utter indifference' to her safety by allowing negligent security practices that permitted a firearm to be brought into the ballpark. This legal action comes nearly a year after the incident, during which two women were injured by gunfire at the stadium.
