Misleading a firefighter
Sec. 7. A person other than a firefighter who, with intent to
mislead a firefighter or law enforcement officer as to the person's
status as a dispatched firefighter, knowingly or intentionally enters
an emergency incident area while wearing, transporting, or otherwise
possessing a uniform, fire protective clothing, or fire protective gear
commits a Class A misdemeanor. However, the offense is a Class D
felony if, as a proximate result of the person entering the emergency
incident area, a person or firefighter suffers bodily injury (as defined
in IC 35-41-1-4).
