OPINION
STOVER, Justice.
A jury found Donald Ray Sibley, Jr. guilty of aggravated assault. Punishment was assessed by the jury as confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice—Institutional Division for a term of 15 years and a fine of $10,000.
Sibley submits three points of error. First, he contends the evidence is insufficient to sustain the conviction. Second, he alleges he was entitled to a lesser included offense instruction in the jury charge. Lastly, he complains he was denied effective assistance of counsel. We overrule his points of error and affirm the judgment.
