TYLER, Texas — A Smith County judge found a Tyler man guilty of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, which stems from him pulling out a gun and threatening an employee during an argument at a Tyler Walmart in September.
Trumaine Washington, 33, went through a bench trial, which means a judge hears the evidence to make a verdict, in the 241st District Court.
