ORDER

PER CURIAM:

AND NOW, this 16th day of July, 1997, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is hereby GRANTED, BUT LIMITED to the following issue:

Additionally, this case is hereby REMANDED to the trial court so that a hearing may be conducted to determine whether the false information in question was knowingly included in the affidavit in support of the search warrant. Jurisdiction relinquished.
