Description

The appellant, Frederick O. Black, was convicted by a jury of evading arrest and unlawful possession of a handgun. He was sentenced as a Range I standard offender to two (2) years imprisonment for the handgun offense and to eleven (11) months and twenty-nine (29) days for evading arrest. The trial court set his sentences to run consecutively. Black now appeals, presenting for our review the following issues: (1) whether the evidence adduced at trial is sufficient as a matter of law to sustain his convictions; (2) whether the trial court adequately instructed the jury with regard to the requisite mens rea for the crime of evading arrest; and (3) whether the trial court sentenced him improperly. Having thoroughly considered these issues, we find no error in the judgment of the trial court. We will discuss each issue in turn after a brief narration of the facts.
