Penn State chick 'knocked out' by moose head?

A college student claims she was injured when a "moose head with antlers" fell off the wall of a Pennsylvania State University laboratory and landed on her head. According to Amy Walters, the falling moose head struck her in the right temple and knocked her into a chair, where the stuffed item landed in her lap. The February 2005 incident, Walters claims in a Court of Commons Pleas complaint, has left her suffering from severe headaches.

Walters was attending a biology class in the lab, which had "several wild game heads displayed on the walls about the room." As she peered through a microscope "directly beneath the moose head," Walters claims, she was struck on the head by the plummeting hunter's trophy. Walters charges the university with negligence for failing to ensure that the moose head was "properly affixed" to the lab wall. Her complaint does not specify monetary damages, but contends that she has suffered "loss of enjoyment of life" and "embarrassment and humiliation." Article here.
