Sanders v. District Court

Undisputed evidence in the record discloses the following facts. On the morning of the accident, claimant had been given a ride by a fellow-employee, Shephard, to the parking lot of their employer, Kaibab Industries, Inc. While claimant and Shephard were waiting in the parking lot for the arrival of a vehicle which was provided by Kaibab to take its employees from the parking lot to the site of its logging operations, Shephard accidentally discharged his hunting rifle and wounded the claimant in the left foot and right ankle. The rifle was intended to be used for hunting purposes and was not brought for employment purposes. There was no evidence that Kaibab knew of or condoned the carrying of firearms by its employees.
