OPINION
ROBERTS, Judge.
This is an appeal from a conviction for robbery by assault under our former code. The court assessed punishment at ten years’ confinement.
We are confronted at the outset with a fundamentally defective indictment. As in Lucero v. State, 502 S.W.2d 128 (Tex.Cr.App.1973) (case 1), the indictment here fails to allege “to whom the property allegedly taken belonged.” See Lucero, supra, and the authorities there cited.
The judgment is reversed, and the prosecution is ordered dismissed.
