In this case,there was a sufficient conflict in the evidence for reasonable minds to differ as to whether the particular serious and exigent events unfolding right before Shukla at the Chevron station that morning,together along with Robinson's warning,should have put her on notice that activating the gas pump for Muhammad would pose an unreasonable risk of harm to Antoine,even though there was no history of prior similar incidents at this specific Chevron station.Therefore,the court could not say that the district court erred in denying Chevron's motion for judgment as a matter of law or a new trial.
