State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company v. Ferrin9/5/2002
he hunters reached their destination. The fact that the truck was used to transport the hunters and assist in the hunt simply provides no connection between the use of the truck and the explosion of the rifle. Had Alan walked to the hunt carrying the rifle or engaged in target practice in his backyard, the rifle still would have exploded.
We hold that the District Court did not err in concluding that Alan Ferrin's personal injuries were not caused by an accident resulting from the use of Carl Wajahuski's insured motor vehicle. Accordingly, State Farm was entitled to summary judgment as a matter of law.
Affirmed.
We concur:
