In Sanders v. State (2001) 54 Ill. Ct. Cl. 390 397inmates were injured by stray pellets after an officer fired a warning shot into a shot box. The inmates argued that the officer shot the weapon in a negligent manner or either missed the shot box and that their injuries were caused by structural flaws of the shot box or either by the officer missing the shot box all together. The Court denied their claims because there was nothing in the record to indicate that the State must provide a shot box or even correct flaws in the shot box. Sanders held that the State would not be held for third party injuries from ricocheting pellets if the Respondent did not act improperly.
