OPINION

Anthony Wayne Dawkins was charged by indictment with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon (Count I) and aggravated assault with the same deadly weapon (Count II). A jury returned a verdict of guilty as to both counts and assessed punishment at twenty-five years’ imprisonment per offense. Appellant was sentenced accordingly and ordered to serve his sentences concurrently. Appellant raises three issues on appeal. In Issues One and Two, he complains that the evidence was legally and factually insufficient to prove the elements of aggravated robbery and aggravated assault, respectively. In Issue Three, Appellant contends that his conviction for both offenses violates the Double Jeopardy Clause of the United States Constitution. For the reasons that follow, we reform the judgment in part and affirm as reformed.
