Description
PER CURIAM. Following a jury trial, Detravis Ross (Defendant) was convicted on two counts of the class A felony of first degree assault, § 565.050.2, 1 and two counts of the class A felony armed criminal action, 2 § 571.015. He was found by the trial court to be a prior offender, §§ 558.016 and 557.036.4, and sentenced to thirty years on each count, to run concurrently. In determining the sufficiency of the evidence to support a conviction, the evidence together with all reasonable inferences is viewed favorably to the verdict and evidence or inferences contrary to the verdict are ignored. State v. Baker, 859 S.W.2d 805, 811 (Mo.App. 1993). The evidence shows that on November 6, 1994, Armand Hodges and Stacy Wright were injured in a drive-by shooting incident in Malden, Missouri. Fifteen to twenty individuals were standing near the intersection of Francis and North Edwards streets when a vehicle approached from the east. The vehicle stopped approximately one-half block from North Edwards. The headlights were turned off and the parking lights came on. At least four shots were then fired from the passenger side of the vehicle. A witness identified Defendant as the driver of the vehicle during the shooting. When the car was later stopped at 11:30 p.m., approximately 45 minutes after the incident, Defendant was identified as a passenger in the vehicle.
