Head Matter:
Persophone Robert VAN-REENENE, Appellant, v. The STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 92-1536.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
June 15, 1993.
Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender and Jeffrey E. Feiler, Sp. Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Fleur J. Lobree, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appel-lee.
Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HUBBART and GODERICH, JJ.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Under the circumstances, there was no reversible error in the prosecutor's cross-examination concerning the failure of the defendant to secure a witness who might substantiate his claimed defense. See Miller v. State, 582 So.2d 85 (Fla. 3d DCA 1991), and cases cited therein; see also, State v. DiGuilio, 491 So.2d 1129 (Fla.1986).
As the State concedes, the judgment as to count XIII should be amended to reflect the jury's finding that the defendant was guilty of petit theft rather than grand theft.
Affirmed as modified.
