EN BANC.


COBB, Presiding Justice, for the Court.

¶ 1. At issue in this case is whether a witness to a service station gasoline explosion which killed six people unrelated to him is a foreseeable plaintiff to whom the defendants owed a duty of care. Under the precedent of this Court, no such duty was owed. Therefore we affirm the trial court's grant of summary judgment for the defendants.
