law .
An assault is any unlawful attempt or offer with force or violence to do a corporal hurt to another ,
whether from malice or wantonness ;
for example ,
by striking at him or even holding up the fist at him in a threatening or insulting manner ,
or with other circumstances as denote at the time .
an intention ,
coupled with a present ability ,
of actual violence against his person ,
as by pointing a weapon at him when he is within reach of it .

When the injury is actually inflicted ,
it amounts to a battery . (
q .
v .)
2 .
Assaults are either simple or aggravated .
1 .
A simple assault is one Where there is no intention to do any other injury .
This is punished at common law by fine and imprisonment .
2 .
An aggravated assault is one that has in addition to the bare intention to commit it ,
another object which is also criminal ;
for example ,
if a man should fire a pistol at another and miss him ,
the former would be guilty of an assault with intent to murder ;
so an assault with intent to rob a man ,
or with intent to spoil his clothes ,
and the like ,
are aggravated assaults ,
and they are more severely punished than simple assaults .
