LEVINE , J. Thomas A. O'Toole, the employee, appeals from the administrative judge's decision denying and dismissing his claim for workers' compensation benefits for injuries received when a patron attacked him in a bar. The employee, a correctional officer at MCI Shirley, was off-duty at the time of the attack. It is undisputed that the assailant attacked the employee because of the assailant's general animosity toward correctional officers. Because we conclude that the employee's injuries were not work-related, we affirm the decision.
