J. Robert Daniel, Macon, for appellant.
Walker P. Johnson, Dist. Atty., Thomas H. Hinson, Asst. Dist. Atty., Macon, for appellee.
Defendant was found in a church parking lot at 1:10 a. m. in his car with the motor running. A companion was with him. Certain items identified as property of the church were in the car. A pane of glass had been removed from the church window and putty had been scraped from around the pane. A knifeblade was found on the person of defendant. Upon conviction of burglary defendant appeals and enumerates error on the general grounds only.
In the case of Evans v. State, 138 Ga.App. 460, 226 S.E.2d 303 this court held: Apparently in this case the jury did not believe that defendant's explanation of his possession was reasonable.
The evidence was sufficient to authorize the conviction.
Judgment affirmed.
