Criminal Activities
Assault
Threatening another with imminent physical harm or displaying a weapon in a manner that puts others in reasonable fear of harm; in many jurisdictions brandishing a firearm or threatening violence is a criminal offense.
Situation:
"While taunting a cyclist on the road the group discussed egging/throwing things; someone in the car fired a beer across the cyclist's bow and a bottle/beer hit him in the back of the head.

Assault
Threatening another with imminent physical harm or displaying a weapon in a manner that puts others in reasonable fear of harm; in many jurisdictions brandishing a firearm or threatening violence is a criminal offense.
Situation:
"At one point someone in the vehicle Dee throws a 'piss jar' out the window and Mac says 'I'm covered in piss!' This act is presented as intentional and targeted, consistent with an assault or disorderly conduct offense."
Failure to render aid
After causing or contributing to an injury, the responsible parties left the injured person without providing assistance or ensuring treatment; under many U.S. jurisdictions this can support a failure-to-render-aid or related offense.
Situation:
"After the bicyclist was struck the group questioned whether he was okay but ultimately did not render aid and continued on (they later drive off and resume the trip), leaving the injured party at the scene."
Reckless Endangerment
Conduct that creates a substantial risk of serious physical injury to another person; when victims are minors this commonly qualifies as child endangerment or child neglect under U.S. law.
Situation:
"The gang intentionally smashed and set wicker chairs on fire inside the U-Haul/trailer to cook hot dogs; the resulting smoke/ fumes incapacitated them, demonstrating a reckless creation of a hazardous condition."
