    HB169

    Makes it aggravated assault to hit an umpire. Use to be a charge of simple assault.

    Has this been an issue that required a bill? I haven't heard of any instances in state.

    OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
    The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

    Sorta weird. Why would an umpire get the same protection as law enforcement?
