    Before BARKDULL, C. J., and PEARSON and HENDRY, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

Affirmed upon the principle that:

“ . . . where, as here, an independent force or act intervenes to bring about a result that the defendant’s negligence would not otherwise have produced, it is generally held that the defendant is liable only where the intervening force or act was reasonably foreseeable.”
