Dаllаs wаs the оwner оf a demоlition business. The City of Columbia hired Dallas to demolish an old building belonging to the City to make room for a new library. Dallas planned to plant dynamite charges around the building, detonate the dynamite, and then haul the debris away. Early on the morning of November 1, Dallas planted sticks of dynamite around the building's perimeter that was to be destroyed. At that same time, Dallas wired the sticks of dynamite to a detonator. Dallas intended to detonate the dynamite on November 1st at 10:00 pm when there would be fewer cars and pedestrians in the area. Barriers and signs had been erected but the street running past the building had not yet been closed. At 5:00 pm on November 1, suddenly and unexpectedly, one of the planted sticks of dynamite spontaneously detonated. Peter happened to be driving by the building at the time of the unexpected explosion. A heavy piece of concrete was hurled away from the building due to the explosion and onto the street in front of the building where it struck Peter’s car. When the piece of concrete hit Peter’s car, it caused damage to the car and physical injury to Peter. Discuss a cause of action by Peter against Dallas for strict liability.
