Everyone who prevents law enforcement from carrying out their duties should be arrested.

  • Obstruction of justice – preventing officers from performing their legal duties.

  • Resisting arrest – physically or actively preventing an officer from doing their job.

  • Interfering with a peace officer – broader, can include verbal or physical obstruction.

However, there are nuances:

  • Simply disagreeing or criticizing the police does not count as obstruction.

  • The law often requires intentional action to interfere.
