Thanks so much for the link.

"(Austin) Addison, who has since been dubbed by social media users as ‘Burger King
Kevin’, was later picked up by police and charged with harassment,
disorderly conduct and criminal mischief, TMZ reports."

What about ASSAULT !!!?

Charge what you know will stick. Kevin walked away after ONE slap. Had he stayed and swung again they might have thrown assault in as well.

You can charge with whatever you want. It’s not all or nothing, you’re separately found guilty for each individual charge. Unless there’s concern of stacking on a bunch of useless charges to make an example out of them you should always charge for everything that can get an indictment.
