ROBERTSON, Judge.
The defendant-appellant Bush appeals his conviction of robbery by raising four issues, none of which show error.
Facts from the trial show that Helen Swinehart, an employee of Danner's Store in Columbus, Indiana, testified that a male individual (Bush) came to her checkout counter to purchase a pair of sunglasses and some gum. Bush came to the checkout counter a second time, after a lapse of approximately ten minutes. On the second trip through the checkout counter, he demanded the money in the cash drawer and warned Mrs. Swinehart that she had "five seconds." Bush then grabbed currency, checks, and credit card receipts from the cash drawer of the checkout counter and fled.
A short time later, Bush was stopped by an Indiana State Police Trooper when he was observed driving in a reckless manner by the trooper. After stopping Bush, the trooper heard a dispatch concerning a robbery at Danner's Store which gave a description of the car used to flee the scene. The car driven by Bush matched this description. Subsequent to his arrest, Bush gave permission to search his automobile wherein cash and personal checks made out to Danner's were found under the seat.
Bush was delivered into the custody of the Columbus Police, who had responded to a radio call by the State Trooper. Bush was then taken to the Law Enforcement Building in Columbus where he signed a waiver of his constitutional rights and made two statements, one written and one recorded. Additionally, Mrs. Swinehart made a positive identification of Bush from a photographic lineup.
At trial, the tape recorded statement by Bush was introduced into evidence. The entire tape recording was heard by the jury over the [176 Ind.App. 166] objection of defense counsel. Objection was made to a portion of the recording relating to the purchase of drugs by Bush from a non-medical source. Furthermore, the defendant objected to the introduction into evidence of his picture used in the photographic lineup as immaterial and irrelevant evidence.
The trial resulted in the jury finding Bush guilty of robbery.
