Jared works as a security guard for BullsEye, Inc. ("BullsEye"), a big box retail store. BullsEye's workplace rules include a strict prohibition against the use of force against suspected shoplifters. Jared and other security guards are supposed to quietly report suspected shoplifters to the store manager or loss prevention officer on duty. Jared is aware of these rules, but he thinks they prevent him from catching people who steal merchandise from the store.

One day Jared sees a man remove a bottle of cologne from its packaging and conceal the cologne in a small backpack. Jared thinks this presents an opportunity to protect the store's merchandise and prove that his way of approaching shoplifters is better than the burdensome company rules. He sneaks up on the man with the backpack, grabs him by the back of the shirt, and slings him to the ground. The man's head contacts the ground, causing severe injury.If the suspected shoplifter later sues Jared the security guard and the case proceeds to a trial by jury, the jury will likely find Jared:

Group of answer choices

a) Not liable because Jared was doing his job, working for BullsEye at the time of the incident.
