Policer officer assult?

Question

What's the crime for using mace on a police officer to flee a crime scene? Would an officer consider that a reason to use deadly force?

No, I didn't commit a crime, but if I did choose to live a life of crime and I have a warrent for my arrest, I want to know how to flee if I get pulled over without anyone getting hurt.

Answer 1

I'm not sure of what the term is in your state, but in my state you would be charged with battery and felony obstruction.

In order for us to carry pepper spray in this state, we have to be sprayed with it and it videotaped. This shows how long we are immobilized and could be used in court to justify the deadly force we used to defend ourselves.

The safest way of fleeing is just plain 'ol running on foot. Unless you happen to get the one officer who believes in the motto "I don't run after you, I run over you." Or the officer whose partner is a patrol/attack dog.

Answer 2

Assaulting a Police Officer is a felony crime in this state and in many others. Mace is an assault.

If you attempt to point a weapon (yes, MACE is a weapon) at a police officer, or anyone else, that is justifiable reason for deadly force. The reason is, the officer does not know what you are pointing at him. For all he knows, you are spraying nerve poison at him.

If you want to get away from the officer, than you are limited to trying to out run him, his buddies, other patrol cars, the radio calls, the helicopter, and finally, the police dog.
good luck. . .

Answer 3

This would be at least Aggravated Assault( in Illinois). And yes, many officers would use deadly force to subdue you. Based on the fact that the officer does not know what you are planning to do. Yes, officers have been trained to fight through OC spray. However, that was a controlled environment. This would also depend on your next action. Are you spraying and fleeing, spraying and attacking? Etc.....

Answer 4

yes.
never attack a police officer. if you do then that's about 3 to 5 charges right there.

and why would you want to flee a crime scene? it's like not you committed the crime did you?

Answer 5

Its called assult. If you are causing harm to a officer, prepare to do some jail time even if its mace and your innocent.
If your innocent why would you wanna flee? or cause harm?

Answer 6

If you flee you are gonna get hurt. If you flee after spraying mace at an officer (an overtly aggressive act) you are really gonna get hurt. Don't be dumb, man, if you are caught, you are caught-don't fight and don't flee.

Answer 7

in case you're making plans on getting married, do no longer substitute right into a police officer given which you return domicile daily a sprint annoyed from all of the knotted up issues you have seen and the divorce fee is rather intense. in case you're actually not making plans on getting married, then by making use of all skill substitute right into a police officer.

Answer 8

It depends on your actions; to the police officer, he may perceive you releasing a weapon (offensive or defensive) towards him/her. To me as a law enforcement official, this would seem a threat to me at the time. who knows if the weapon in my face is a knife, gun, or mace?
Even after maced, you're actions that follow may lead a officer to believe you may reach for his/her weapon, which allows for deadly reaction.
Bottom line, DON'T MACE POLICE OFFICERS, YOU MAY DIE!!!

Answer 9

Yes, since if you attempt to mace, that means the officer loses control and his life could be in danger, if you attempted to mace him, he would shoot you.

Answer 10

why would you want to mace a cop, why would you be in a situation where you would need too and they have a gun and youre going to use mace on them??? thats like attacking a bear with a feather.
