## Opinion text

NAHRA, J.,
concurring.
Defendant and his co-defendant, George P. Chandler were tried together. In
State v. Chandler
(Nov. 22, 1989), Cuyahoga App. No. 57731, we held (1) the denial of the motion to suppress was error, and (2) defendant could not be convicted of the felony of possession of criminal tools under a general statute where the same conduct was governed by a special statute which made it a misdemeanor. As the facts here are exactly the same, the result cannot be otherwise.
