SCHUMAN, J.

Defendant appeals a judgment of conviction for murder. ORS 163.115. On appeal, he argues that the trial court erred in admitting a statement made by the victim to one of her friends while defendant was present. We agree with defendant that the trial court erred in admitting the victim's statement as an adopted admission under OEC 801(4)(b)(B). We therefore reverse and remand.
