OPINION
KIRSCH, Judge.
Maggie Bush and Leonard Bush (“the Bushes”) appeal the trial court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company (“State Farm”). They raise two issues, of which we find one dispositive: whether State Farm’s automobile policy violates Indiana’s uninsured motorist statute because it requires that an insured sustain bodily injury and not just damages as a result of the conduct of an uninsured motorist before uninsured motorist benefits are available.
We reverse and remand.
