P. v. Mares CA4/3
A jury convicted Lawrence A. Mares, Jr., of premeditated attempted murder (Pen. Code, §§ 187, subd. (a), 664, subd. (a) [count 1]; all statutory citations are to the Penal Code), assault with a semiautomatic firearm (§ 245, subd. (b) [count 2]), and assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer (§ 245, subd. (c) [count 3]). The jury also found Mares personally discharged a firearm causing great bodily injury (§§ 12022.5, subd. (a) [count 2], 12022.53, subds. (c) & (d) [count 3]) and personally inflicted great bodily injury (§ 12022.7, subd. (a) [count 2].) Mares challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the assault on a peace officer conviction (count 3). For the reasons expressed below, we affirm.
