(1) Except as otherwise provided, a criminal intent is an essential element of every crime defined by this code. Criminal intent may be established by proof that the conduct of the accused person was intentional or reckless. Proof of intentional conduct shall be required to establish criminal intent, unless the statute defining the crime expressly provides that the prohibited act is criminal if done in a reckless manner.

(2) Intentional conduct is conduct that is purposeful and intentional and not accidental. As used in this code, the terms “knowing”, “willful”, “purposeful”, and “on purpose” are included within the term “intentional”.

(3) Reckless conduct is conduct done under circumstances that show a realization of the imminence of danger to the person of another and a wanton disregard or complete indifference and unconcern for the probable consequences of such conduct. The terms “gross negligence,” “culpable negligence,” “wanton negligence” and “wantonness” are included within the term “recklessness” as used in this code. (Ord. 93-09 § 2, 1993; Ord. 83-75 § 2, 1983.)
