1 attacked: An "assault" and an "attack" are synonymous in this context. Both terms describe physical confrontations in which one person is aggressed or hit by another. This article describes the "assault" of one bar patron by another. The term can be used as a verb ("She assaulted me") or a noun ("I accused him of assault").
1 robbed : To "rob" describes the act of "stealing" money and valuables. For example: I was robbed by two men. They took my diamond necklace and my purse. "Robbery" is not the same as an assault, which describes a physical attack.
1 threatened: To "threaten (someone)" is to "menace" them, or "to warn them of future danger". For example, "the company threatened to fire the employee if he was caught stealing again". "To threaten" and "to assault" are two different actions.
2 arms: An "arm" describes a weapon such as a gun, knife, sword etc, as does a "weapon". Note that an "arm" is also the part of the body: an appendage which connects the "hand" to the "shoulder".
2 motives: In the context of crime, a "motive" describes a reason or motivation to commit a crime. For example, the "motive" of the murder was revenge. The term is not synonymous with "a weapon".
2 suspects: In the context of crime and law enforcement, a "suspect" describes a person believed or though to have committed a crime. For example: The suspect in this case has many reasons to attack his boss. The term is unrelated to a "weapon".
3 helpful information: This is correct. A "clue" describes helpful information, or information which provides insight or knowledge to a puzzle or problem. For example: I am looking for clues; I have no idea where this money came from. Note that "clue" and "lead" are synonymous in this article.
3 the suspect: In the context of crime and law enforcement, a "suspect" describes a person believed or though to have committed a crime. For example: The suspect in this case has many reasons to attack his boss. The term is unrelated to a "clue".
3 the victim: A "victim" describes the person to whom a crime or action has been committed, as opposed to an "assailant", "perpetrator" or "suspect". The term is not synonymous with "a weapon".
4 Observers: In the context of crime and law enforcement, a "witness" describes a person who observed or saw a crime being committed. "Witnesses" are essential for police investigations and trials as they can prove or disprove the accusations against someone. In this article, there were no "witnesses" of the crime which took place in the bar.
4 Civilians: A "civilian" describes a regular person in a community (city, state or country), generally one who is unaffiliated with law enforcement or the military. In other words, a civilian is NOT affiliated with the police or military.
4 Patrons: A "patron" describes a customer or client, generally one in a bar or restaurant. Example: The bar patrons all knew the bartender's name.
