(Tahlequah-AP) -- A Tahlequah woman who was trapped between automatic doors at a Wal-Mart is suing Wal-Mart and the door company.

Sharon Smock and her husband, William, are suing Wal-Mart, Beam Automated Entrance Systems and Stanley Access Technologies, which serviced and repaired the doors.

The lawsuit says Sharon Smock suffered injuries to her hand and arm when she was pinned between the doors at the store in Tahlequah on December first.

The Smocks are asking for damages in excess of ten-thousand dollars, court costs, attorney fees and interest. William Smock is also asking for lost wages for work time he missed while taking his wife to doctor's appointments.
