Description
PER CURIAM. OPINION. Fred Larson was convicted by a jury in Fairbanks of burglary not in a dwelling and attempted petty larceny. The convictions arose from an incident that took place in the late evening of July 5, 1978, at a store and gas station at Mile 75 of the Elliott Highway, near Livengood, Alaska. The burglary conviction resulted from Larson's breaking into a cabin for storage and removing an old gas lantern. The attempted petty larceny conviction was the product of Larson's efforts at siphoning gas out of the store owners' truck. He was sentenced to five years on the burglary charge, with half of that time suspended, and to six months on the petty larceny charge. The two sentence were made to run concurrently, but consecutively to those imposed in any other case involving Larson. Larson has appealed his conviction on the grounds that the trial court erred in denying his motion for acquittal on the petty larceny charge, that an instruction on aiding and abetting was too broad, and that testimony of a state trooper should not have been admitted because of Miranda violations. We have carefully examined these contentions in the light of the entire record and find no merit to any of them.
