Before ARMSTRONG, JONES and MURRAY, JJ.


MURRAY, Judge.

Carrie Ola Brown, curatrix of Joyce J. Brown and tutrix of Joyce Brown's minor son, seeks review of the district court's determination that neither the City of New Orleans (the City) nor its off-duty police officer, Reginald Williams, is liable for the injuries Joyce Brown suffered when she was accidentally shot as the officer attempted to stop an armed robbery. We affirm the trial court's judgment of dismissal.
