One of our rocket scientists just fired 49 223 rounds at a State Police officer with his drum-equipped AR, striking the car once. Yes, once.

N.M. State Police; Suspect Fired 50 Rounds at Officer During Attempted Stop | Officer

"An Aztec man is accused of firing about 50 rounds at a New Mexico State Police officer during a traffic stop Monday in Farmington.

A state police vehicle was hit by at least one round, according to an arrest warrant affidavit, but the officer was not struck by gunfire. A statement from the agency said he was "OK" after the incident."

"...Silva faces charges of attempted second-degree murder, aggravated assault on a police officer, shooting at or from a motor vehicle and two counts of aggravated fleeing from police, according to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday in San Juan County Magistrate Court..."

Why second degree?

Why second degree?

I've given up trying work out the significance or reasoning behind 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree in different states when it comes to crime statutes.
