Resisting Arrest, Search, or Transportation is described as using force to prevent a peace officer from making an arrest, search, or transportation and is a felony of the third degree if a deadly weapon is used. Which offense is this?

• A. False Identification
• B. Tampering with Physical Evidence
• C. Resisting Arrest, Search, or Transportation
• D. Perjury

Answer: (C)

The offense here is resisting arrest, search, or transportation. It covers using force to prevent a peace officer from completing an arrest, a search, or a transportation. When a deadly weapon is involved, that act is elevated to a third-degree felony, reflecting the greater danger and intent to obstruct law enforcement. This description directly matches resisting arrest, search, or transportation, making it the correct choice. False identification involves lying about who you are to officers; tampering with physical evidence means altering or concealing evidence; perjury is lying under oath. Those offenses describe different conduct, not the act of forcefully hindering an officer’s lawful duties.
