Before EDMONDS, Presiding Judge, and LINDER and WOLLHEIM,[*] Judges.
PER CURIAM.
Defendant was convicted of attempted murder with a firearm, first-degree assault with a firearm, and felon in possession of a firearm. He challenges his convictions and *213 sentences. We reject defendant's challenges to his convictions without discussion.
With respect to his sentences, defendant argues that the trial court's imposition of dangerous offender sentences was erroneous under Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. 296, 124 S. Ct. 2531, 159 L. Ed. 2d 403 (2004), and Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466, 120 S. Ct. 2348, 147 L. Ed. 2d 435 (2000), because the sentences were based on facts that were not admitted by defendant or found by a jury. Although defendant did not advance such a challenge below, he argues that the imposition of the sentences should be reviewed as plain error. Under our decision in State v. Warren, 195 Or.App. 656, 98 P.3d 1129 (2004), the sentences are plainly erroneous. For the reason set forth in State v. Perez, 196 Or.App. 364, 102 P.3d 705 (2004), rev. allowed, 338 Or. 488, 113 P.3d 434 (2005), we exercise our discretion to correct the error.
Sentences vacated; remanded for resentencing; otherwise affirmed.
