SUMMARY
This amendment strikes language from Committee Amendment "A" that creates a new Class C crime when a person intentionally or knowingly causes offensive physical contact to a law enforcement officer. This amendment also removes the mental state of "recklessly" from the crimes of causing bodily injury to a law enforcement officer, causing bodily injury to an emergency medical care provider and causing bodily injury to a firefighter when the injured's status as a law enforcement officer, emergency medical care provider or firefighter resulted in the selection of the injured as a target.
