1Opinion of the CourtBrock, C.J.
The defendant, Nelson Santana, was convicted after trial by jury in the Superior Court (Dalianis, J.) of sale of cocaine and possession with intent to sell cocaine, contrary to RSA 318-B:2 (since amended, see Supp. 1989). He was sentenced to serve five to ten years, with another five to ten year consecutive sentence suspended. On appeal he claims that the Superior Court (Mangones, J.) erred in denying his pretrial motion to suppress evidence discovered in the apartment which the police entered forcibly, without a *800warrant, and in which he was arrested. For reasons that follow, we reverse.
