1Opinion of the Court
Beasley, Presiding Judge.
Hadsock’s son, Richie Bethea, was murdered by another employee, Wright, during an armed robbery while making a night deposit at a local bank for their employer, Harvey. Hadsock filed a tort action against Harvey and against the bank, which is not a party to this appeal. Harvey was granted summary judgment on the ground that OCGA § 34-9-11, the exclusivity provision of the Workers’ Compensation Act, provided immunity because Bethea’s death arose out of and in the course of his employment.
