Opinion
No. 89-1486.
February 7, 1990.
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Broward County; M. Daniel Futch, Jr., Judge.
Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Jeffrey L. Anderson, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Deborah Guller, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.
Reversed and remanded for a new trial.
We agree that the trial court erred in admitting testimony by a police officer that appellant had stated to him more than two (2) years before the incident in question that he had once possessed a shotgun belonging to his grandfather. There was no showing that this evidence was relevant to the charge being tried. See Huhn v. State, 511 So.2d 583 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987).
ANSTEAD, WALDEN and POLEN, JJ., concur.
