New January laws: Protecting first responders
FOX 13's Aaron Mesmer reports on a new law aimed at protecting first responders by keeping crowds at a distance is set to take effect, with supporters and opponents still at odds about whether it's necessary. The so-called "halo law" will go into effect January 1, 2025, and will make it illegal to come within 25 feet of first responders if the intent is to "impede, threaten or harass" them.
