‘Robinson (Appellant) v Chief Constable of the West Yorkshire Police (Respondent) [2018] UKSC 4. The Supreme Court has made a significant decision on the question of the scope of the common law duty of care owed by police when their activities lead to injuries being sustained by members of the public. It has long been the case that a claim cannot be brought in negligence against the police, where the danger is created by someone else, except in certain unusual circumstances such as where there has been an assumption of responsibility.’
