ELDRIDGE, Judge,
concurring.
I concur in the result in this case, although I do not join the Court’s opinion. It is clear to me that the search of the police cruiser trunk and gym bag was valid under the principles set forth in United States v. Ross, 456 U.S. 798, 102 S.Ct. 2157, 72 L.Ed.2d 572 (1982), and Carroll v. United States, 267 U.S. 132, 45 S.Ct. 280, 69 L.Ed. 543 (1925). I would not reach the matter of possible consent.
