During a winter weekend when the tenant was out of town and the store was closed, a thief broke into the building. The thief left the building exposed to the elements. As a consequence, water in the pipes froze and burst the pipes, resulting in structural damage to the building.

Which of the following would be the tenant's best argument that she is not obligated to repair the damage to the building?

A. The criminal act of a third party caused the damage.
B. The lease was residential.
