UPON A REHEARING EN BANC
On December 7, 1999, a panel of this Court reversed and dismissed the conviction of David Darnell Lowery for robbery. See Lowery v. Commonwealth, 31 Va.App. 131, 521 S.E.2d 770 (1999). We granted the Commonwealth’s petition for rehearing en banc and stayed the mandate of that decision.
Upon rehearing en banc, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed without opinion by an evenly divided Court. Accord*619ingly, the opinion previously rendered by a panel of this Court on December 7, 1999 is withdrawn, and the mandate entered on that date is vacated. The appellant shall pay to the Commonwealth of Virginia thirty dollars damages.
Chief Judge Fitzpatrick, Judges Bumgardner, Frank, Humphreys and Clements voted to affirm said judgment.
Judges Benton, Willis, Elder, Bray and Annunziata voted to reverse the judgment of the trial court.
This order shall be published and certified to the trial court.
