Deen, Judge,
dissenting as to Division 3. The majority now holds (a) that the objection to the admission of the police report in evidence was too broad because directed to the paragraph “Describe What Happened” which did contain some trifling information uncontradicted such as “Veh. was traveling south on Back St.” along with the hearsay, and (b) the objection was not broad enough because it did not include the diagram and the officer’s conclusion of. “no improper driving.” In the middle of a trial it is difficult to phrase an objection that qualifies as a model of scientific precision. The intent of the objection was clear. The issue was raised and passed on erroneously by the trial court. The ruling was prejudicial. In my opinion, the objection should not be considered by this court too imperfect for consideration.
