If it appear by the testimony that the facts proved constitute an offense of a higher nature than that charged in the indictment or information, the court may direct the jury to be discharged, and all proceedings on the indictment or information to be suspended, and may order the defendant to be committed or continued on, or admitted to bail, to answer any new indictment or information which may be filed against him for the higher offense. R.L.1910, § 5887.
