Natasha is a dangerous criminal who is being held at Asgard police station following her arrest. PC Banner, a newly qualified police officer, doesn't lock the door to Natasha's cell properly, allowing her to escape. On the way out of the station she picks up some documents she sees lying around near the cell area. She then goes to the police station car park and steals a van owned by Scott, a civil contractor who was visiting the police station to eradicate an insect infestation. Natasha causes serious damage to Scott's van as she is making her getaway.

Natasha later reads through the documents she took from the police station and realises that it is a list of police informants, one of whom, Wanda, had informed on her. Enraged, Natasha goes to Wanda's house and seriously injures her, although Natasha herself is also injured in the struggle.

After leaving Wanda's house Natasha realises she requires medical attention and phones for an ambulance. However, the Asgard ambulance service takes an hour to arrive after the paramedic, Heimdall, enters the postcode incorrectly into his Sat Nav. The delay leaves Natasha with permanent disabilities. She is eventually caught by the police and receives a longer sentence of imprisonment because of the theft of, and damage caused to, Scott's van and the wounding of Wanda.

Scott, Wanda and Natasha now seek your advice upon whether they may have any claims in negligence against the Asgard police and Asgard ambulance service in respect of their losses.
