1Opinion of the Court
BAUER, Circuit Judge.
Defendant Demetrius Jackson (“Jackson”) appeals his conviction for possession with intent to deliver crack cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), and 18 U.S.C. § 2, and possession of crack cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 844, and 18 U.S.C. § 2. He claims that the evidence presented to the jury was insufficient to support his conviction. The government cross-appeals, challenging the district court’s decision not to sentence Jackson as a career offender under U.S.S.G. § 4B1.1. We affirm the conviction, vacate the sentence, and remand for re-sentencing.
