ORDER

PER CURIAM.
AND NOW, this 3rd day of August, 2011, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is hereby GRANTED, the order of the Superior Court is VACATED, and this case REMANDED to that court for consideration of the other issues raised by petitioner before the Superior Court. Although the best evidence was available, the trial court followed proper procedure pursuant to Pa.R.E. 1002 by not allowing the introduction of the videotape, due to its containing material prohibited by Bruton v. United States, 391 U.S. 123, 88 S.Ct. 1620, 20 L.Ed.2d 476 (1968). Jurisdiction relinquished.
