Types of Assaults

Felonious assault is an unlawful attack or attempted attack, accomplished through force or violence, that causes physical injury to another person. This type of assault involves the use of weapons and/or serious injury. If a weapon is used, an attack is deemed a felonious assault even if no injury occurs. But there need not be a weapon for this designation. If a serious injury occurs due to an assault using hands, fists, or feet, it is also deemed a felonious assault. Therefore, both serious resulting injuries and the use of weapons are triggers for a felonious assault. Assault and battery is an example of a felonious assault. This is a type of incident that results in actual contact made and creates a need for medical attention to the victim.
Simple assault occurs when a weapon is not used and the resulting injuries that are caused to the victim are minor in nature.
Physical assault causes grievous bodily harm, such as prior to the commission of a murder or aggravated assault.
Aggravated assault occurs with the use of a weapon and/or an amount of increased force.
Sexual assault involves the use of force against the will of the victim, resulting in a rape, molestation, sodomy or similar sexual offense.
Verbal assault – this is a type of non-physical, oral assault that results in an emotional, mental, and/or psychological injury to the victim, rather than a physical bodily injury.
Aggravated Battery- A victim is injured due to a deadly weapon.
