{¶ 37} The appellant admitted being in the vehicle after his companions went into the house on Fourth Street. An eyewitness indicated the car had one person in it when the accident occurred. Viewed with the other evidence and the logical inferences arising from it, the state's case meets both of appellant's challenges. Thus, I would affirm his conviction.
