RENDLEN, Judge,
concurring in part and dissenting in part.
I join the majority in its affirmance of defendant’s convictions for kidnapping, rape and robbery first degree. However, I dissent to that portion of the majority opinion reversing defendant’s conviction of armed criminal action for the same reasons set *61forth in my dissenting opinion in State v. Haggard, 619 S.W.2d 44, decided this date. It should be noted that the sentence imposed for defendant’s armed criminal action conviction was life imprisonment, while the punishments assessed on the other crimes were 15 years each for rape and kidnapping and 30 years for robbery.
