ONION, Presiding Judge
(dissenting).
I agree that the shotgun and shell, being the fruit of an illegal search and seizure, were inadmissible. I cannot agree that the constitutional error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt under the test established by Chapman v. California, 386 U.S. 18, 87 S.Ct. 824, 17 L.Ed.2d 705 (1967). See, also, Harrington v. California, 395 U.S. 250, 89 S.Ct. 1726, 23 L.Ed.2d 284 (1969).
Therefore, I respectfully dissent.
