PER CURIAM:
Christopher Chad Davis appeals his conviction for assault
on an officer with a dangerous weapon, in violation of 18 U.S.C.A.
§ 111 (West 2000 & Supp. 2004), alleging that the evidence was
insufficient to support the conviction. Construing the evidence in
the light most favorable to the Government, we find that any
rational factfinder could have found the essential elements of the
crime beyond a reasonable doubt. Glasser v. United States, 315
U.S. 60, 80 (1942). Accordingly, we affirm Davis’ conviction. We
dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions
are adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
