About this listen
This excerpt from the Texas Penal Code establishes the legal framework regarding the criminal misuse of pyrotechnics against authorities. It specifically prohibits individuals from detonating fireworks to obstruct a law enforcement officer’s duties or to facilitate an escape from arrest. The severity of the crime scales from a state jail felony to a first-degree felony depending on the type of explosive used and the extent of any physical harm caused to an officer. Furthermore, the statute clarifies that these charges can be applied concurrently with other violations of the law. By defining specific roles and materials, the text ensures that using fireworks as a weapon or distraction carries significant judicial consequences.
