Syllabus

Appellant's conviction for aggravated menacing was not against the manifest weight of the evidence despite conflicting testimony. The credibility of the witnesses and the weight to be given to their testimony were matters for the trier of fact to resolve. The evidence was sufficient to demonstrate that appellant acted knowingly in causing the victim to believe that he would cause her serious physical harm and to persuade a reasonable trier of fact that the elements of aggravated menacing had been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Judgment affirmed.
