OPINION

KENNEDY, Justice.

Appellant was convicted of aggravated assault and punishment was assessed at five years' imprisonment. Appellant brings two points of error.

Appellant, by his first point of error, complains that the trial court committed reversible error when it denied appellant's motion to discharge the jury. Appellant complains that the prosecution exercised its peremptory jury strikes against Hispanics solely on the basis of race.
