1Opinion of the Court
POPOVICH, Judge.
The Commonwealth appeals the order of the Court of Common Pleas of Clinton County granting the motion to suppress filed by the defendant/appellee, Jason Michael Proctor. 1 We reverse.
[WJhere the Commonwealth is appealing the adverse decision of a suppression court, a reviewing court must consider only the evidence of the defendant’s witnesses and so much of the evidence for the prosecution as read in the context of the record as a whole remains uncontradicted.
