Legal definitions of assault can change according to circumstances that led to an altercation.
For instance, a person charged with assault is alleged to have intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly caused bodily injury to another; caused another to reasonably fear imminent bodily injury; or caused physical contact with another — contact that a reasonable person would regard as extremely offensive or provocative.
Charges of aggravated assault result from the presence or use of a deadly weapon, or the level of harm that was threatened. It can also be charged if sexual violation or maiming is threatened.
Battery involves physical contact with another person with intent to cause physical harm or death. Examples of battery are punches, slaps, kicks, shoving or pushing, scratches or use of a weapon to batter a victim.
