PER CURIAM.
Appellant argues, inter alia , that the trial court erred in denying his Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.800(b) motion to strike investigative costs, which were imposed without the introduction of any evidence. We agree and remand for the trial court to strike the $600 "Investigative Agency Costs: Brevard County Sheriff’s Office" imposed pursuant to section 938.27(1), Florida Statutes (2018). See Negron v. State , 266 So. 3d 1266, 1267 (Fla. 5th DCA 2019) ("An award of investigative costs must be supported by competent substantial evidence." (citation omitted)). We otherwise affirm.
AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED with INSTRUCTIONS.
