BISMARCK (AP) — A South Dakota man is suing the federal government for a 2007 fall at a North Dakota post office.

Charles Mardian, of Aberdeen, S.D., said the accident happened while he was working as an independent contractor delivering mail in Halliday, N.D.

Mardian said he was pushing a mail cart up a plywood ramp when a wheel of the cart fell through the plywood. He said that caused him to fall into the cart.

Mardian said he suffered rotator cuff injuries to his right shoulder. He’s seeking unspecified damages.
