OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Appellant was convicted of possessing an instrument of ‍‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‍crime generally, prohibited offensive weapon, carrying a firearm without a license, criminal conspiracy, robbery and murder of ‍‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‍the second degree. On appeal appellant raises the following issues:

1. There was allegedly insufficient evidence to support ‍‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‍any of the crimes charged;

2. That the search warrant was based on illegally obtained evidence and ‍‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‍therefore the evidence obtained pursuant to the search warrant was allegedly inadmissible.

Having found no merit in either ‍‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‍of these arguments, we affirm the judgments of sentence.
