Before LEHMAN, C.J., and THOMAS, GOLDEN, and TAYLOR, JJ., and KALOKATHIS, D.J.

LEHMAN, Chief Justice.

Benjamin McChesney entered a conditional plea of guilty to a charge of possession of marijuana with intent to deliver, reserving the right to appeal the denial of his motion to suppress evidence. McChesney argues that the police officer who stopped his car in response to an anonymous tip of erratic driving did not have a reasonable suspicion necessary to support an investigatory stop. We agree and now reverse.
