[¶1] Richard Richardson III appealed his conviction of felony reckless endangerment, a class C felony under N.D.C.C. § 12.1-17-03, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence for the jury’s verdict. He argues the evidence was insufficient to show he acted recklessly and did not act in self-defense when he fired his weapon at a vehicle with three occupants. We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3). [¶2] Jon J. Jensen, C.J. Gerald W. VandeWalle Daniel J. Crothers Lisa Fair McEvers Jerod E. Tufte
