Question: Can You Explain What Assault Is In Savannah?
Answer: Assault is very broad, too. Assault can just generally be a generic threat of violence. [A] typical scenario I think of when I think of assault is, you go to somebody’s house to watch a football game and you’re pulling for one team and they’re pulling for another one. The game turns out the wrong way, the two of you have words and it gets a little bit more heated than that. Assault just basically means you could even just say, “I’m going to take you outside and I’m going to kill you.” Something of that nature. It doesn’t necessarily require you to actually strike someone or anything like that, but even a simple threat of violence can lead to an assault charge.
