James Cleveland v. Staples: A truck driver who claims that a piece of ice fell off the roof of a Staples warehouse in the Dayville section of Killingly and struck him in the head was unable to convince a jury recently that the office supply chain store was liable for an injury that has kept him permanently out of work.

On Feb. 3, 2011, at about 7 p.m., James Cleveland was placing chocks under the wheels of an 48-foot trailer at a Staples distribution warehouse when he claims a piece of ice fell off the roof and hit him in the head.
