Aetna Casualty & Surety Co. v. Vierra
green
2 sentences2001The plaintiffs also contended that defendants’ failure to sand their driveway amounted to gross negligence or wrongful *653 intentional conduct rather than ordinary negligence, and, alternatively, that defendants’ conduct constituted a subsequent and independent tort, falling outside the purview of the rule, as in Vierra, 619 A.2d at 439 . 2000Rather, the third prong of the rule — “that the tortfeasor is the individual who created the dangerous situation which brought the police officer or firefighter to the crime scene, accident scene, or fire,” id. at 439 — is meant to assure that some nexus or connection exists between the alleged wrongdoer and the event or emergency that caused the public-safety officer’s presence at the location where the officer is injured. | 3 | 1996–2001 |
