LH>"Assault deaths"??? I haven't run across that category.
the primary source is OECD's Health Statistics (for 1999)

From the International Crime Victims Survey (which obviously
doesn't
include deaths...)
http://www.ruljis.leidenuniv.nl/group/jfcr/www/icvs/
the table here
http://www.ruljis.leidenuniv.nl/group/jfcr/www/icvs/data/i_VIC.HTM
shows that the figure for "assault and threat" is higher in the
US than in
both England and Wales, and Scotland). It also shows what kind
of
crime comes under the heading of "violent crime". I'll list
the categories:
car theft; theft from car; car damage; motor bicycle theft;
bicycle theft;
burglary attempt; burglary; theft from garages; robbery; theft
of personal
property; sexual offences; assault and threat.
I think I'll continue to take my chance here
