The STATE of Florida, Appellant, v. Allan WAGNER, Appellee.
    No. 96-539.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    Jan. 14, 1998.
    
      Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, and Fredricka Sands, Assistant Attorney General, for appellant.
    Frigola, DeVane & Dorl and James J. Dorl, Marathon, for appellee.
    Before LEVY, GREEN and SHEVIN, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

We reverse the order granting the motion to suppress. The trial court erred in finding that the officer did not have a founded or reasonable suspicion that the vehicle occupant had committed a crime to justify stopping the vehicle. See Hunter v. State, 660 So.2d 244, 249 (Fla.1995).

Reversed and remanded.

LEVY and SHEVIN, JJ., concur.

GREEN, Judge

(concurring).

I agree that a reversal of the lower court’s suppression order is warranted, but by virtue of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Alabama v. White, 496 U.S. 325, 110 S.Ct. 2412, 110 L.Ed.2d 301 (1990), and this court’s decision in State v. Gonzalez, 682 So.2d 1168 (Fla. 3d DCA 1996), review denied, 689 So.2d 1069 (Fla.1997).
