Definition modification of crime of violence for firearms crimes

SF 667 amends Minnesota Statutes section 624.712, subdivision 5, to expand the definition of "crime of violence" for firearms restrictions. It adds specific offenses like aggravated robbery (609.245), domestic assault (609.2242), criminal sexual conduct (609.342-345), and gang-related crimes (609.229) to the list of offenses triggering firearm prohibitions. This directly affects individuals convicted of these specific crimes, as it would now require them to surrender firearms under state law. The change clarifies which existing offenses qualify as "crimes of violence" when determining firearm restrictions under Minnesota law.
