People v. Bowie

Defendant, Kenneth Bowie, was found guilty by the circuit court of Cook County sitting without a jury of the offenses of battery, resisting a police officer, and criminal trespass to land. Defendant was sentenced to one year concurrent sentences on each charge. On appeal, defendant alleges that the State failed to prove him guilty of battery beyond a reasonable doubt, and that a police officer, in the context of this case, cannot be considered to be an owner or occupant within the meaning of the criminal trespass to land statute. Ill. Rev. Stat. 1973, ch. 38, par. 21 — 3.

We reverse and remand.
