ADOPTED 02/27/2021

On page 4, beginning on line 1, after "unless" strike all material through "harm" on line 4 and insert "the operator is using the vehicle as a deadly weapon and no other reasonable means to avoid potential serious harm are immediately available to the officer"

EFFECT:   With respect to the restriction against a peace officer firing upon a moving vehicle unless necessary to protect against an immediate threat arising from the operator's or passenger's use of a deadly weapon, provides that the vehicle itself does not constitute a deadly weapon unless the operator is using the vehicle as a deadly weapon and no other reasonable means to avoid potential serious harm are immediately available to the officer (rather than providing that the vehicle itself does not constitute a deadly weapon unless extraordinary circumstances apply where it appears the operator is using the vehicle for the purpose of causing serious physical harm to another person and the officer has no other reasonably accessible means to stop the harm).
