A bill to amend 1931 PA 328, entitled “The Michigan penal code,” (MCL 750.1 to 750.568) by adding section 234g.
HB 5821 and HB 5822 create new sentencing guidelines for a person convicted of discharging a firearms at a motor vehicle. Such an act would be a Class D felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $10,000. However, if the motor vehicle fired upon contained a minor, the offense would be upgraded to a Class B felony and the maximum punishments would double.
