I don’t think you are right about that actually. Felony murder doesn’t apply in every situation in which someone gets hurt. But I am interested to see what other charges stem from it. Interesting issue but I think you have to do more than be the target of arrest when some bonehead shoots his partner.

If this is a felony murder jurisdiction, and if the suspects were in the process of committing a felony, then this is a straight-up felony murder. If the suspects were merely walking down the street, then probably not.
