PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Mariel Zagunis, a two-time Olympic gold medalist fencer and a Beaverton native, filed a lawsuit against a local garbage company last week, saying the company is responsible for a broken lift gate that collapsed and crushed her right foot.

Zagunis, according to the lawsuit, hired 1-800-Got-Junk? to remove items from her home. On Oct. 19, 2016, while loading items into the truck, Zagunis said the lift gate of the truck crashed down and crushed her foot, breaking her big right toe and leaving her with “throbbing pain with a rating of nine out of ten, swelling, bruising, numbness and weakness.”

Following the injury, Zagunis, who took bronze in the 2016 Olympics and hopes to compete in Tokyo in 2020, had surgery after her toe was crushed and accrued $15,000 in medical expenses, according to the lawsuit. She also alleges she lost at least $200,000 in earnings based on the injury.

A spokeswoman for 1-800-Got-Junk? told KOIN 6 News: “We were made aware of the lawsuit today. As additional information is learned, we may be able to provide further comments at an appropriate time.”

In total, Zagunis is suing the company for at least $965,000.

Zagunis, the daughter of two Team USA rowers, graduated from Beaverton’s Valley Catholic High School in 2006. She graduated from the University of Notre Dame and made her first Olympic appearance in 2004. In her four Olympic appearances, Zagunis has won two bronze medals and two gold medals.
