Hon snuddade honom i 3 km/h, fanns ingen fara. Bilen hade ju dessutom redan passerat när skjutandet startar. Han ville skjuta.

1. Obstruction of federal officers
Under 18 U.S.C. § 111 and 18 U.S.C. § 1501:
It is illegal to forcibly assault, resist, oppose, impede, intimidate, or interfere with federal officers performing official duties.
Using a car to block agents can qualify as “forcible interference”, even if no one is touched.
Penalties:
Misdemeanor or felony
Fines and possible prison time, especially if a vehicle is involved (vehicles are often treated as dangerous instruments).
2. Vehicle as a weapon / dangerous instrument
Courts frequently treat:
Intentionally positioning a vehicle to block, trap, or threaten officers
as use of a dangerous instrument, even at low speeds.
This significantly raises the severity of charge
