Chavez (Jose) v. State

but his wife did not open the door. Chavez then forced the victim down the stairs, hit him with the gun, and punched him. The victim ran away and called the police after Chavez dropped the gun. Chavez's own statements to the police indicated that he wished to scare the victim with the gun. Chavez did not have a concealed weapons permit. We conclude that the jury could reasonably infer from the evidence presented that Chavez was carrying a concealed weapon and used that weapon to commit assault, coercion, and battery. See NRS 202.350(1)(d)(3); NRS 200.471; NRS 207.190; NRS 200.481. The verdict will not be disturbed on appeal, where, as here, substantial evidence supports Chavez's convictions. See Bolden v. State, 97 Nev. 71, 73, 624 P.2d 20, 20 (1981). Therefore, we ORDER the judgment of conviction AFFIRMED.
