1Opinion of the Court

BARNES, Presiding Judge.

Following his convictions for aggravated assault, aggravated battery and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, Marquel C. Jones appeals from the denial of his motion for new trial, contending that the evidence was insufficient to sustain his convictions. Following our review, we affirm.

“On appeal from a criminal conviction, we view the evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict, with the defendant no longer enjoying a presumption of innocence.” Reese v. State, 270 Ga. App. *152522, 523 (607 SE2d 165) (2004).

We neither weigh the evidence…
