  1  4    Any person, having the intent to commit a felony, assault,
  1  5 criminal mischief, or theft therein, who, having no right,
  1  6 license or privilege to do so, enters an occupied structure,
  1  7 such occupied structure not being open to the public, or who
  1  8 remains therein after it is closed to the public or after the
  1  9 person's right, license or privilege to be there has expired,
  1 10 or any person having such intent who breaks an occupied
  1 11 structure, commits burglary.
  1 12    Sec. 2.  Section 713.2, Code 1997, is amended to read as
  1 13 follows:
  1 14    713.2  ATTEMPTED BURGLARY DEFINED.
  1 15    Any person, having the intent to commit a felony, assault,
  1 16 criminal mischief, or theft therein, who, having no right,
  1 17 license, or privilege to do so, attempts to enter an occupied
  1 18 structure, the occupied structure not being open to the
  1 19 public, or who attempts to remain therein after it is closed
  1 20 to the public or after the person's right, license, or
  1 21 privilege to be there has expired, or any person having such
  1 22 intent who attempts to break an occupied structure, commits
  1 23 attempted burglary.  
  1 24                           EXPLANATION
  1 25    This bill expands the definition of burglary and attempted
  1 26 burglary.  The bill provides that a person, who has the intent
  1 27 to commit criminal mischief by damaging or destroying property
  1 28 and who enters an occupied structure without any right to
  1 29 enter, commits burglary.  If a person attempts to enter an
  1 30 occupied structure to so damage or destroy property, that
  1 31 person commits attempted burglary.  Criminal mischief is
  1 32 defined in Code section 716.1.
