PER CURIAM.

The jury found Robert Earl Wiley guilty of attempted third-degree murder of a law enforcement officer for events ‍‌​‌​​​​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‍on March 18, 1992. The trial judge sentenced Wiley as an habitual offender to thirty years in prison, with a twenty-five year minimum mandatory term. Attempted murder of a law enforcement ‍‌​‌​​​​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‍officer is a life felony. § 784.07(3), Fla. Stat. (1991). We reverse and remand for resentencing because, as the State concedes, a life felony may not be enhanced. State v. Knickerbocker, 616 So.2d 33 ‍‌​‌​​​​​​‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‍(Fla. 1993). We affirm in all other respects.

It is so ordered.

SMITH, BARFIELD and LAWRENCE, JJ., concur.
