OPINION
Thе district court, in a declaratory judgment action, determined that a homeowner’s insurance policy provided coverage for injuries аnd death resulting from a motor vehicle accident that occurred after the insureds supplied alcohol to the minor driver. The insurer apрeals, contending that the insureds’ act of providing alcohol to minors did not constitute an “occurrence” within the meaning of the insurance policy and the motor vehicle and intentional act exclusions apply. We reverse, concluding that the act of supplying alcohol to minors is not a covered occurrence under the homeowner’s policy and that the motor vehicle exclusion of that same policy applies.
FACTS
The basic facts are undisputed. Michael Duffy (1) allowed his underage daughter to hold a New Year’s Eve party at their housе and (2) purchased alcohol to be served at the party, as did his 21-year-old son, Jason Duffy. Two teenagers who attended the party, Kevin Broсkway and Mark Adams, left together. Brockway, the intoxicated driver, lost control of his vehicle, hit a tree and was killed. Adams, who was a passengеr in the Brockway vehicle, was injured. Michael Duffy pleaded guilty to six gross misdemeanors, and Jason Duffy pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor for furnishing alcоhol to minors.
The injured passenger and the trustee for the deceased driver sued the Duffys, who tendered defense of the lawsuit to Illinois Farmers Insurance Company, their homeowner’s liability insurer. The insurer brought a declaratory judgment action, contending it was not obligated to defend or indemnify the Duffys. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of respondents, finding coverage, and the insurer appeals.
ISSUES
I. Was the act of providing alcohol to minors an “occurrence” within the meaning of the homeowner’s policy?
*615 II. Does the motor vehicle exclusion in the homeowner’s policy preclude coverage?
ANALYSIS
On review of a summary judgment, an appellate court will assess whether there are genuine issues of materiаl fact and whether the district court erred as a matter of law.
State by Cooper v. French,
I.
The homeowner’s policy defines occurrence as
an accident including exposure to conditions which results during the policy period in bodily injury or property damage. Repeated or continuous exposure to thе same general conditions is considered to be one occurrence.
(Emphasis omitted) An “accident” includes “all negligently caused injury, provided such injury was not intentional.”
Milbank Ins. Co. v. B.L.G.,
This court has discussed the meaning of “occurrence” and “accident” when the insured intended the wrongful act, but did not intend to cause the harm that resulted.
Gilman v. State Farm Fire & Cas. Co.,
the proper analysis requires the fact-finder to determine whether the wrongful or tortious event was an accident. * * * [I]n this case, the wrongdoing was the tackle, which the jury found was not “unexpected, unforeseen, or unde-signed,” and was not negligent.
We hold that in cases such as this, where there is an allegedly tortious and nonconsensual аct, the jury should properly be instructed that an “accident” is an “unexpected, unforeseen, or unde-signed” happening, and that it includes negligеntly caused injury that was not intentional. The “happening” is the wrongful or tortious act or event.
Id. at 383.
In this case, the wrongful or tor-tious events for which the insureds sоught coverage were their actions of supplying alcohol to minors. It is undisputed that giving alcohol to minors was wrongful; the Duffys later pleaded guilty tо criminal charges for their conduct. Because the wrongful or tortious acts were not accidental, they do not constitute an occurrence within the meaning of the policy. Consequently, the unintended harm that resulted is not covered under the policy.
II.
We also address whether thе motor vehicle exclusion applies. The homeowner’s policy excludes coverage for injuries arising out of the use of a motor
*616
vehicle.

A plaintiff nonetheless may recover on the tortfeasor’s homeowner’s policy for injuries sustained through the use of a motor vehicle whеre “two independent acts, one vehicle-related and one nonvehi-cle-related, were involved.”
Waseca Mut Ins. Co. v. Noska,
In
Seefeld,
the injury arose when the insured was negligently driving an all-terrain vehicle and pulling a negligently dеsigned and constructed trailer.
Id.
at 64. Because the injury caused by the trailer could have occurred only through the use of a motor vehicle, both causes of injury were deemed related to a motor vehicle and subject to the motor vehicle exception in the homeowner’s insurance.
Id.
at 65. In contrast, in
Noska,
when the insured hauled barrels of live embers in a truck, and the barrels emitted sparks that ignited fires, the act of placing the live embеrs in the barrels was deemed a concurring, nonvehicle-related act covered by homeowner’s insurance.
Noska,
• Respondents contend that the act of furnishing alcohol to a minor, who subsequently drives a motor vehicle, is equivalent to placing live embers into a barrel, to be subsequently transported by a motor vehicle. They assert that just as damages could have resulted from the live embers without the act of driving, so too the intoxicated minors could have been injured through the use of alcohol without a motor vehicle, such as from alcohol poisoning or sustaining injuries from a fight.
We disagree. As in
Seefeld,
DECISION
The decision by the district court determining that the homeowner’s insurance policy provided coverage is reversed.
Reversed.
Notes
. We find no support in the policy for respondent Brockway's claim that the exclusion applies only to motor vehicles owned by or rented to the insured.
