An Illinois teenager who was told by doctors that his lungs are like those of a 70-year-old after vaping for about 18 months has filed a lawsuit against Juul, one of the main e-cigarette companies.

Attorneys filed a lawsuit in Lake County Circuit Court on behalf of 18-year-old Adam Hergenreder, who was hospitalized at the end of August for about a week after complaining of nausea and labored breathing.
