The opinion

RAWLINGS, Justice

(concurring specially).

I concur in Division III of the majority opinion, and the result, but am unable to agree with the conclusion reached by the majority to the effect Officer Lind lacked sufficient expertise and was therefore not qualified to express an opinion.

It appears to me this witness did qualify as an expert, but here failed to establish a sufficient factual basis for the introduction in evidence of that opinion.

BECKER and LeGRAND, JJ., join in this special concurrence.
