Bill > HB2045

This bill amends Arizona law regarding drive-by shootings by clarifying that the act of "discharging a weapon from a motor vehicle" now also includes discharging a weapon from the immediate area around a motor vehicle that was used to transport the shooter or the weapon to the scene. This change expands the scope of what constitutes a drive-by shooting offense, potentially making it easier to prosecute individuals who commit such acts even if they are not directly inside the vehicle when the weapon is fired. The bill also maintains existing provisions related to the forfeiture of vehicles used in these crimes, the revocation of the convicted person's driver's license for at least one to five years, and classifies drive-by shooting as a class 2 felony.
