Before CIACCIO, WILLIAMS and BECKER, JJ.

WILLIAMS, Judge.

This is a wrongful death action resulting from the murder of the decedent by her co-worker. The issue is whether the Louisiana Energy and Development Company can be held vicariously liable for the intentional torts of its employee, Sterling Rault, against his co-employee, Jane Ellen Francioni. We affirm the granting of summary judgment, dismissing the claim in tort against the employer and its insurer.
