Yes and people have broken into houses, hurt themselves and successfully sued the homeowner. Like the case study I did in university that I posted earlier in here. A homeowner was doing renovations and someone broke into the house when no one was home and fell off the balcony or stairs (can't remember) and sued the homeowner and won. I'll see if I can find a link.
Edit: can't find the specific case but here is an american article about when it can happen:

I'm assuming the missing staircase without any sign or warning was viewed as negligent or whatever.
