Opinion
No. 89-2258.
March 7, 1990.
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Broward County; Leroy H. Moe, Judge.
Richard L. Jorandby, Public Defender, and Ellen Morris, Asst. Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Don Rogers, Asst. Atty. Gen., West Palm Beach, for appellee.
Upon consideration of the record and briefs of the parties we are of the opinion that the trial court erred in denying the appellant's motion to suppress cocaine seized as the result of an illegal detention, illegal because the stop was not supported by a founded suspicion, McCarthy v. State, 536 So.2d 1196 (Fla. 4th DCA 1989); R.B. v. State, 429 So.2d 815 (Fla. 2d DCA 1983).
REVERSED.
