New York Court of Appeals
People v. Kennedy, 19 N.Y.2d 761 (N.Y. 1967)
226 N.E.2d 186; 279 N.Y.S.2d 360; 1967 N.Y. LEXIS 1636

People v. Kennedy

Opinion of the Court

Judgment affirmed. Defendant’s obstruction of the firemen and police officers in the performance of their duty at a street intersection during a fire posed a serious hazard to the public. It is enough that disorder was threatened by defendant’s conduct (People v. Most, 171 N. Y. 423, 429; People v. Hipple, 263 N. Y. 242, 244).

Concur: Chief Judge Fold and Judges Van Voorhis, Burke, Scileppi, Bergan, Keating and Breitel.
