A student in Oklahoma is suing her university for $175,000 over claims that she was bitten by ticks as a result of a bat infestation that was not contained.
Mary Ledbetter alleges that she woke up several times one night in August 2019 with unknown red bites on her face and all over the parts of her body not covered with clothing, while living in Patchin Hall at Oklahoma State University (OSU).
Her legal complaint, filed in November, has come to light as more students allege further bat sightings in the dorms.
