State v. Suelzle

[¶1] Benjamin Suelzle appeals from a district court judgment after a jury found him guilty of aggravated assault, aggravated reckless driving, reckless endangerment, leaving the scene of an accident involving serious personal injury, leaving the scene of an accident involving an unattended vehicle and leaving the scene of an accident involving an attended vehicle.  Suelzle argues insufficient evidence exists to support a guilty verdict because he acted in self-defense.  We conclude the State presented sufficient evidence and summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3).
