Description
The opinion of the court was delivered by This is a wrongful death and survival action brought by the heirs of Barbara Gragg, who was shot and killed by Anthony Scott at the Celebrate '93 fireworks display held on the campus of Wichita State University (WSU). The defendants are WSU, its athletic corporation, and the corporate sponsors of the event. The Gragg children claimed the defendants failed to provide adequate security for the event, failed to install adequate lighting on the campus, and failed to warn of the potential for crime on or near the campus. The trial court granted the defendants summary judgment on the grounds they owed no legal duty to protect Gragg from or warn her of the criminal acts of a third party and the Kansas Tort Claims Act (KCTA) provides immunity to all the defendants from the plaintiffs' claims.
