Panera Bread’s highly caffeinated Charged Lemonade is now blamed for a second death, according to a lawsuit filed Monday.

Dennis Brown, of Fleming Island, Florida, drank three Charged Lemonades from a local Panera on Oct. 9 and then suffered a fatal cardiac arrest on his way home, the suit says.

Brown, 46, had an unspecified chromosomal deficiency disorder, a developmental delay and a mild intellectual disability. He lived independently, frequently stopping at Panera after his shifts at a supermarket, the legal complaint says. Because he had high blood pressure, he did not consume energy drinks, it adds.

    Maybe because the article tells you he was developmentally delayed, kinda like people who don’t read the article.

      Yeah that’s on me. Just read the title and reacted while at work. Panera really needs to make it clear on the menu itself at how this lemonade is very different from the regular kind. Poor guy.
