Answer: can be held liable for negligence, because the store has a duty to warn its customers against foreseeable risks.(A)
Explanation:
In a local grocery store, an ice cream fell out of the freezer, melt over the floor which resulted in a customer slipping on the melted ice cream and breaking his leg.
The store will be held responsible for negligence as it was the duty of the store to warn the customers against foreseeable risks. The store should have informed the customers that there were ice cream on the floor so that the customers can be cautious. Since the customers were not informed appropriately, the store should be liable.
