I believe he intended to hit him, hurt him, and embarrass him. I don't believe it even occurred to him that it might kill the man. The punch was intentional, the death was not.
Aren't there different charges for an intentional killing and an accidental one? If so, we'll see what he is charged and convicted of.

I think it’s called something like aggravated involuntary manslaughter, but add to that the fact that the victim was over 65. If the poor man hadn’t died, I think it would have been felony aggravated assault and battery on a senior. So sad.
