LAVINE, J.

The unfortunate facts of this case demonstrate that it is impermissible to interfere with a peace officer performing his or her duties, even if one believes that the officer is mistaken or improperly used a pretext to execute an arrest warrant. See General Statutes (Rev. to 2003) § 53a-167a (a);1 see also State v. Aloi, 280 Conn. 824, 834, 911 A.2d 1086
