MEMORANDUM DECISION

FROEB, Presiding Judge.

Appellant appeals from his convictions of aggravated assault, one a class 6 felony and the other a class 5 felony, and the sentences imposed thereon. . There are three issues on appeal: first, whether the trial court should have given Willits and “missing witness” instructions; second, whether the jury was incorrectly instructed on the weight to be given to the testimony of law enforcement officers; and third, whether appellant was entitled to a self-defense instruction. We conclude the jury was properly instructed and affirm.
