Opinion:
ON MOTION FOR REHEARING
DAUKSCH, Judge.
Appellee has sought our rehearing in this matter and pointed out that the first opinion is in conflict with Young v. State, 519 So.2d 719 (Fla. 5th DCA 1988) and Lambert v. State, 517 So.2d 133 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987).
Appellee is correct that a conflict was created by the first opinion. We grant rehearing, withdraw our previous opinion in this case and affirm the sentence of the trial court. We also certify conflict with Tuthill v. State, 518 So.2d 1300 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987); Wilson v. State, 510 So.2d 1088 (Fla. 2d DCA 1987); Lewis v. State, 510 So.2d 1089 (Fla. 2d DCA 1987) and, finally, certify the same question of great public importance we certified in Young.
Rehearing granted, sentence affirmed, question certified.
SHARP, C.J., concurs.
COWART, J., dissents with opinion.
