1Opinion of the Court
FREDERICKS HOMBERG WICKER, Judge.
| gin this criminal matter, Stephen Hayes, Jr., defendant/appellant, appeals his second degree murder jury trial conviction and his life sentence at hard labor without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence. On appeal, Mr. Hayes raises two assignments: (1) The trial court erred in denying his motion for mistrial when a state witness/detective mentioned that the defendant had a couple of arrests. (2) There is insufficient evidence to support the conviction. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
