Rashawn Dion HUTCHINS, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 94-04496.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    March 20, 1996.
    James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Douglas Chanco, Assistant Public Defender, Bartow, for Appellant.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and John M. Klawikofsky, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Rashawn Dion Hutchins appeals his convictions and sentences for robbery with a firearm, attempted robbery, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. These offenses occurred in Hillsborough County in 1993. We affirm the convictions and his life sentence as a habitual violent felony offender for robbery with a firearm. We reverse the trial court’s imposition of consecutive habitual offender sentences for attempted robbery and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon because these offenses arose from the same criminal episode. See Hutchins v. State, 658 So.2d 1205 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995) (providing the same relief to this defendant for a comparable episode in Polk County).

Affirmed in part and reversed in part.

PARKER, A.C.J., and ALTENBERND and WHATLEY, JJ., concur.
