Using threats of force or violence or intentionally committing acts of violence against another individual to harm them is a crime known as assault. One of the most complex forms of assault you can be charged with is assaulting a police officer. If you were believed to have threatened or tried to harm someone you knew was a police officer, you could be charged. Law enforcement, judges, and prosecutors take crimes against police officers very seriously.
