## Opinion text

PER CURIAM.
Reversed and remanded for a new trial. We agree with appellant that the trial court erred in refusing to allow the state to amend the information by reducing the charge to a lesser offense. Since the appellant agreed, we find no basis for the trial court to deny the amendment.
HERSEY, C.J., and ANSTEAD and STONE, JJ., concur.
