PHOENIX (CBS5) -
If you're a restaurant owner, the last thing you want is for a cockroach to drop on a health inspector when he walks around your kitchen. But that's exactly what happened at one Arizona restaurant.
Matka Indian Cuisine had cans of insecticide in the kitchen, a live roach in the dish wash area and various foods left uncovered. The place is now on notice to clean up or could be closed down.
Every week, CBS 5 News is sent a list of restaurants that have been recently inspected by Maricopa County's Environmental Services Department. CBS 5 News selects five restaurants with some of the highest number of "Risk Factors." According to health inspectors, risk factors are considered major health code violations.
