Opinion:
Quinn, J.
This appeal raises the same issue presented in People v. Davis (1966), 2 Mich App 245. The only factual difference is that this defendant was convicted of escape from prison. CLS 1961, § 750.193 (Stat Ann 1962 Rev § 28.390). This is no reason for differentiation. Davis controls.
Affirmed.
Lesinski, C. J., and McGregor, J., concurred.
