PER CURIAM.

      Larry Newburn appeals the district court’s1 dismissal of his Federal Tort
Claims Act (FTCA) lawsuit. Upon de novo review, we find that the dismissal was
proper. See Mackovich v. United States, 630 F.3d 1134, 1134-35 (8th Cir. 2011) (per
curiam) (law of State where complained-of conduct occurred applies in FTCA cases).
The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                       ______________________________

      1
       The Honorable Ronnie L. White, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Missouri.
