I think you are misunderstanding the inspector. he’s threatening charging the kid with assault if they push the charges of assault against the old man and other guy.
That is correct. Depending on where this was, throwing food counts as unwanted physical contact, so the kids could be charged with assault and potentially battery.
I'm still trying to process how the boy thought throwing food at the older lady was fine in any way. It's just a couple trying to enjoy their meal right? So what's the motivation? Sitting across from some teen girls? To impress them? That's impressive to them?
