(b) A person is guilty of a gross misdemeanor if the person violates paragraph (a) and a law enforcement official or an official's family or household member suffers great bodily harm or death as a result of the violation. (c) A person who is convicted of a second or subsequent violation of this section is guilty of a gross misdemeanor.
