MELTON v. STATE

No. 80-28.

404 So.2d 798 (1981)

John W. MELTON, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

October 6, 1981.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and James V. Johnstone, Sp. Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., and Joel D. Rosenblatt, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before NESBITT, FERGUSON and JORGENSON, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

We have carefully considered each of the points on appeal and find no reversible error. The statement attributed to the deceased placing defendant at scene of crime was inadmissible hearsay but harmless error where defendant's presence at scene of the crime was established by other competent evidence. See, e.g., Roth v. State, 359 So.2d 881 (Fla.3d DCA 1978), cert. denied, 367 So.2d 1126 (Fla. 1979).
