ISHEE, J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. In April 2009, Benjamin Russell was killed after experiencing an automobile accident in Attala County. The Attala County Fire Department responded to the accident. As the fire department vehicle *1086arrived on the scene, it accidentally struck Russell’s body, which was lying in the road. Russell was later pronounced dead. Russell’s wrongful-death beneficiaries filed suit against Attala County through its Board of Supervisors. The Attala County Circuit Court later granted the county’s motion for summary judgment. The beneficiaries appeal. Finding no error, we affirm.
