Donald Duck to be sued over 'grope'

A WOMAN who claims Donald Duck groped her at Disney's Epcot theme park can have her day in court, a US federal judge has ruled.

Disney must defend April Magolon's claims that the character grabbed her breast as she held her child at the Walt Disney World park and then joked about it.

Ms Magolon, 27, of Pennsylvania, claims the May 2008 encounter left her with post-traumatic stress in the form of nightmares and other permanent injuries.

Her lawsuit also charges that Disney parks have a history of fondling complaints involving workers.
