PER CURIAM.

        Charles Gibbon was convicted by a jury of possession of cocaine base with
intent to distribute in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). On appeal he argues that there
was insufficient evidence to support his conviction. After carefully reviewing the
record, we are satisfied that a rational jury could have found the essential elements of
the crime beyond a reasonable doubt. See U.S. v. Liebo, 923 F.2d 1308, 1311 (8th
Cir. 1991). We affirm the judgment of the district court1 without further discussion.
See 8th Cir. R. 47B.

                CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.

    The Honorable Elsijane T. Roy, United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas.
