Description
Plaintiff J.M. was in the process of purchasing gasoline at a Shell convenience store and gasoline station in St. Louis County on October 25, 1992. She was abducted, sexually assaulted and shot in the head by an unidentified assailant. She was left for dead. However, she survived and brought this action. Defendant Shell Oil Company, the lessor and franchisor of the station, moved for summary judgment based on its claim that it was not a possessor of the property and had no right of control over H.T. Dunn Oil Company, the franchisee and lessee of the station. The trial court sustained the motion. Following opinion by the Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, this Court granted transfer. The judgment is reversed.
