Depends on how 'deadly weapon' is defined. In Texas, a deadly weapon is defined in part as 'anything that in the manner of its use or intended use is capable of causing death or serious bodily injury.' Theoretically, almost anything could be used as a deadly weapon.

This sounds like an assault. Can you post a link or other confirmation of the "deadly weapon" part? ?

I do not even see email sent to this address, due to past DOS attacks. If you wish to respond, do so through this newsgroup.
