Head Matter:
STATE v. EDDIE BRADFORD.
(Filed 25 May, 1966.)
Appeal by defendant from Falls, J., January Regular Criminal Session 1966 of Buitcombe.
This is a criminal action in which the defendant was tried upon a bill of indictment charging him with assault with intent to commit rape. The defendant entered a plea of not guilty. The jury returned a verdict of guilty and judgment was pronounced thereon. The defendant appeals, assigning error.
Attorney General Bruton and Deputy Attorney General McGalliard for the State.
Joseph Sam Schenck for defendant.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
The defendant assigns as error the refusal of the court below to sustain his motion for judgment as of nonsuit at the close of the State's evidence. The defendant offered no evidence in the trial below. In our opinion the State offered ample evidence to go to the jury on the question of assault with intent to commit rape, and we so hold.
The remaining assignments of error have been examined and they present no prejudicial error.
In the trial below we find
No error.
Moore, J., not sitting.
