Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Robert E. Jagger, Public Defender, and Virginia Vetter, Asst. Public Defender, Clearwater, for appellant.

Robert L. Shevin, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and William I. Munsey, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


HOBSON, Judge.

R.C.G., Jr., a child, appeals an adjudication of delinquency on the charge of vehicular homicide, Section 782.071, Florida Statutes (1977). Appellant argues that the evidence presented by the state was insufficient to show that he operated a motor vehicle "in a reckless manner likely to cause the death of, or inflict great bodily harm to, another." We agree and accordingly reverse the adjudication of delinquency.
