Following a jury trial in the Fulton County Superior Court, Corey Windham was convicted of robbery by intimidation or force Count 1, and three counts of aggravated assault Counts 2, 3, and 4. The trial court sentenced Windham to 20 years, with 10 to be served in confinement and the balance on probation. On appeal from the denial of his motion for new trial, Windham contends that the evidence was insufficient to support his convictions. We affirm. Viewed in the light most favorable to the verdict, the record shows that Charneequa Lee met Windham in August 2001, and began dating him later that year. During the relationship, Lee admired a jogging suit of Windham’s, and he told her that she could borrow it. In December 2001, Lee broke up with Windham. On December 21, 2001, Windham called Lee and asked her to return the jogging suit. Later that same day Windham showed up at Lee’s house. He kicked in the front door, asked for the jogging suit, and then punched Lee in the face when she told him she did not have it.

Approximately two weeks later, on January 4, 2002, Lee and her friend Lennin Rosario, who was wearing Windham’s jogging suit, were in the parking lot of the Union City WalMart when they saw Windham and his friend “T” exit a Chevrolet Caprice. Windham said “what the fuck . . . let’s go ‘T’ ” and got back into the car. Lee and Rosario got into Lee’s mother’s car, a Dodge Intrepid, and Rosario drove out of the parking lot. Windham followed Lee and Rosario up Jonesboro Road and then came up beside their vehicle, rolled down his window, and said “ I’m gonna kill you, bitch, I’m gonna kill you.” Windham continued to follow Lee and Rosario. When they got to Flat Shoals Road and Old National Highway, Rosario noticed Windham’s best friend Jamie Williams, a/k/a “Dirty,” giving chase in a separate vehicle. Both Windham and Williams were talking on their cell phones.
