Before GARWOOD, WIENER and BARKSDALE, Circuit Judges.

prior Texas conviction for aggravated assault is not a crime of violence under the
Sentencing Guidelines. He contends that the Texas crime of aggravated assault
has a broader definition than most other definitions of aggravated assault
because it may be committed by threatening the victim with a weapon.
This court has previously held that aggravated assault under Texas Penal
Code § 22.02 (Vernon 2002), which is identical to the 1997 version of the statute
at issue in the instant case, is substantially similar to the generic, common sense
definition of “aggravated assault” under the Guidelines. See United States v.
Guillen-Alvarez, 489 F.3d 197, 199-201 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, 128 S.Ct. 418
(2007). See also United States v. Rojas-Gutierrez, ____ F.3d ____ (No. 06-50584;
5th Cir., Dec. 13, 2007), 2007 WL 4341006.
Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is
AFFIRMED.
