Darris Straughter Sues Rick Ross Over Accessibility
News summary

Darris Straughter, a wheelchair user, has filed a lawsuit against rapper Rick Ross after being denied access to the rapper's car show in June due to alleged lack of accommodations for individuals with disabilities. Straughter, who traveled from Florida and sold his car to attend the event, asserts that he was promised a wheelchair-accessible shuttle but found none upon arrival, forcing him to wait for hours before ultimately leaving without entering the show. The lawsuit claims violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act, breach of contract, and negligence, seeking damages over $50,000. Straughter emphasizes the need for better accessibility and has expressed his desire to be a voice for others facing similar issues. The event, held at Ross's Fayetteville estate, reportedly attracted thousands and included various performances and displays. Straughter's attorney has stated that compliance with accessibility laws is mandatory, not optional, and the lawsuit is currently pending.
