OPINION ON REHEARING

CONOVER, Judge.

The State of Indiana has filed a Petition ‍​​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍for Rehearing which correctly points out our statement the defendant was acquitted of the burglary and conspiracy to commit burglary charges is ‍​​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍incorrect. In fact, the jury hung as to these charges. According ly, we have corrected this error by amending our original statement ‍​​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍of facts in this regard. 473 N.E.2d 1059 (Ind.App.1985).

This amendment does not, however, lead to a contrary result. Given a hung jury, it is ‍​​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍patently obvious the evidence was insufficient for the conviction of Hossman as to those two charges.

Excepting the above, the Petition for Rehearing ‍​​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍is in all other respects denied.
