Head Matter:
Kenneth REED, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 96-2083.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
Aug. 13, 1997.
Rehearing Denied Sept. 23, 1997.

Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and John Tiedemann, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for ap-pellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We affirm. The defendant's act of taking the victim's purse with such force as to break the strap and bruise her shoulder distinguishes this ease from Robinson v. State, 692 So.2d 883 (Fla.1997).
AFFIRMED.
DELL, GUNTHER and GROSS, JJ., concur.
