Opinion
ANDERSON, P. J.
Defendant James Earl Rivera (appellant) appeals his convictions for auto theft (Veh. Code, § 10851, subd. (a)) and attempted burglary (Pen. Code, 1 §§ 459/664). He claims that certain evidence supporting his arrest should have been suppressed pursuant to section 1538.5, since his arrest was accomplished without probable cause and by a police dog. He further claims that the court’s admission of this evidence requires reversal of his convictions under Chapman v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 18 [17 L.Ed.2d 705, 87 S.Ct. 824, 24 A.L.R.3d 1065]. We disagree and affirm.
