Federal officials are fining a Baton Rouge area gas station thousands of dollars following the stabbing of an employee.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration says the B-Quik on Greenwell Springs Road failed to protect its worker from violence and waited 15 days to report the employee's hospitalization.
OSHA says it should have been reported within 24 hours.
A customer stabbed the assistant manager in February after several other violent crimes at the store in the past year.
The company is being fined more than $17,000.
