1Opinion of the Court
Adams, Judge.
Early on the morning of March 7, 2007, while Foster Lake, Jr., was patronizing a restaurant in Macon, he was shot by an unknown assailant in the parking lot while trying to break up a fight between a friend and several unknown men. Lake brought suit against the restaurant owner and against the landlord APH Enterprises, LLC, among others, for his injuries. The trial court granted summary judgment to APH on the ground that APH had fully parted with possession of the leased property and, therefore, could not be held liable for Lake’s injuries. Lake appeals, and we affirm.
