Upgrades penalty for assault on law enforcement to second degree crime under certain circumstances.

This bill (A1263) upgrades the penalty for assaulting law enforcement officers to a second-degree crime when bodily injury occurs. Currently, such assaults are a third-degree crime (3-5 years in prison) if injury happens, but this bill elevates it to a second-degree crime (5-10 years in prison, up to $150,000 fine) for injured officers. It specifically targets assaults on officers identifiable by uniform or authority during duty, without changing penalties for assaults causing no injury. The change applies directly to law enforcement officers and aims to increase penalties for violent acts against them.
