Explanation:

- An Affray: This is a legal term for a fight between two or more people in a public place that disturbs the peace. It involves physical fighting and the disruption it causes to the public.

- Correct Answer: Option 1 - An Affray

- An assault: This involves an intentional act by one person that creates an apprehension in another of an imminent harmful or offensive contact. It doesn't specifically require a public setting.

- Rioting: This involves a group of people engaging in disorderly conduct, usually with violent behavior. It typically involves more people and greater disturbance than an affray.

- None of the above: This option is not applicable as the situation described fits the definition of an affray.
