Negligent gun ownership

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — A federal court in Alabama declined to dismiss a wrongful death and negligence lawsuit filed against a man who directed his friend to a gun in the back of his car, which his friend used to shoot and kill someone he was arguing with in downtown Tuscaloosa. Though another person committed the shooting, the allegations leave enough room for members of a jury to disagree as to whether the injury was foreseeable.
