Court of Appeals of Arizona February 23, 1998, 2 CA-CR 97-0076 (State v. Bentlage)

OPINION

DRUKE, Chief Judge.

¶ 1 Appellant Erie Lee Bentlage was convicted of two drug offenses and sentenced to three years’ probation. On appeal, he claims the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence seized after a traffic stop. We agree and reverse the ruling.

¶ 2 We review a trial court’s decision on a motion to suppress evidence for an abuse of discretion.
