Savage v. State

LATTIMORE, Judge.

— Appellant was convicted of aggravated assault in the county court of Hill County punished by a fine of $750.

Appellant sold some turkeys to a merchant in the town of Malone. Will Maass saw the turkeys and said they were his. Later the two men met on the street and fought. The evidence was contradictory as to who began the fight and also as to whether Mrs. Maass was struck by appellant during said fight, and also as to whether she was intentionally struck, if at all. The charge against appellant was that he, an adult male person, committed an assault upon Mrs. Maass, a female.
