Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Federal inmate Freddie Ross appeals the district court's partial denial of his Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41(e) motion for return of seized property, which included $8,400 in cash and several non-cash items. We have carefully reviewed the record, and we find no clear error. See United States v. Felici, 208 F.3d 667, 669-70 (8th Cir.2000) (standard of review), cert, denied, 581 U.S. 1201, 121 S.Ct. 1209, 149 L.Ed.2d 123 (2001). Police found the $8,400 inside Ross's girlfriend's bedroom closet, Ross initially denied any knowledge of the cash, and he later told police the cash belonged to a Vikings football player. In addition, Ross's attorney conceded during the Rule 41 hearing that the motion was moot with respect to the seized non-cash items.
The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
