Oscar W. TUCKER, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 69-702.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    Jan. 22, 1971.
    Walter R. Talley, Public Defender, and Edwin T. Mulock, Asst. Public Defender, Bradenton, for appellant.
    Robert L. Shevin, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Charles Corees, Jr., Asst. Atty. Gen., Lakeland, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Appellant Tucker alleges that as a result of threats and coercive treatment, he made statements which were used against him to force him into pleading guilty. Nothing in the record refutes his allegations, and Tucker therefore should be granted an evidentiary hearing. Rudolph v. State, Fla.App.1970, 230 So.2d 14; Cf. Steinhauser v. State, Fla.App.1969, 228 So.2d 446.

Reversed and remanded with directions.

PIERCE, C. J., and LILES and MANN, JJ., concur.
