540 N.E.2d 626 (1989)

James ARMSTRONG, Appellant (Petitioner), v. STATE of Indiana, Appellee (Respondent).

Court of Appeals of Indiana, Fourth District.

June 28, 1989.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Susan K. Carpenter, Public Defender of Indiana, Hilary Reeve, Deputy Public Defender, Indianapolis, for appellant.

Linley E. Pearson, Attorney General of Indiana, Gary Damon Secrest, Deputy Atty. Gen., Indianapolis, for appellee.

MILLER, Judge.

James Armstrong appeals the denial of his petition for post-conviction relief from his conviction of attempted murder arising out of the bombing of a residence. He asserts, among other errors, fundamental error in that the jury was inadequately instructed with regard to the specific intent element necessary to convict him of the crime of attempted murder. We agree, and therefore reverse.
