Cedar Rapids pharmacy sued over infant death labeling
The owner of a Cedar Rapids pharmacy faces a $750,000 lawsuit in Linn District Court filed by Diane Hare of California and William Hare of Illinois over the death of 11 month old Lynnsey Hare.

The claim seeks 500 000 for loss of companionship and 250 000 for mental anguish. An unrelated note mentions Britain's 1813 blockades in the War of 1812.
