The lawsuit claims that the food market failed to provide adequate security and created a risk of criminal behavior.
"In particular, Fancy Fruit and Produce, Inc. had a non-delegable duty to take such precautions as were reasonably necessary and foreseeable to protect patrons and business invitees, such as (the victim), from criminal attacks, in the grocery store and surrounding parking lot attached to grocery store, which were reasonably foreseeable," the lawsuit states.
