¶ 1. Jessie Dean Ellis brought a premises-liability lawsuit against Gresham Service Stations, Inc., d/b/a Double Quick, Inc., and Bradley MacNealy (collectively, “Double Quick”). Ellis claimed that he was brutally beaten behind the Double Quick store by a group of unknown assailants. The trial court granted summary judgment -in favor of Double Quick based on a finding that no genuine issue of material fact existed as to Double Quick’s actual or constructive knowledge of an “atmo sphere of violence” on the store’s premises. Finding no error, we affirm.
