Description
[115 A.D.2d 330 Page 330] Judgment unanimously affirmed. Memorandum: Defendant was convicted, following a jury trial, of assault in the second degree (Penal Law Γ§ 120.05 [3]) for causing physical injury to a City of Watertown police officer who was injured in the course of performance of a lawful duty. The conviction arose out of an incident that occurred when another police officer, who was aware of outstanding warrants for defendant's arrest, advised defendant that the police had warrants for him and attempted to place him under arrest. When defendant attempted to flee, a melee broke out involving several of defendant's friends and other police officers who came to the assistance of their fellow officers. During the course of this struggle, Police Officer Weldon sustained injuries to her arm which caused her to seek medical treatment for pain and resulted in her missing two weeks of work.
