Holding

“In this insurance case, the dispositive issue is whether the trial court correctly ruled that an exclusion in a policy issued to the owner of business property did not bar coverage for a claimant’s injuries.”

“Accordingly, because of the ambiguous, overbroad nature of the exclusion, we will construe the policy language in a manner that grants coverage, rather than one that withholds it. The judgment of the trial court, therefore, will be affirmed.”
