1Opinion of the Court
RUIZ, Associate Judge:
Appellant, Kevin Singleton, entered a conditional plea of guilty to attempted carrying a pistol without a license (“CPWL”),1 possession of an unregistered firearm (“UF”),2 and unlawful possession of ammunition (“UA”),3 after the trial court denied his Motion to Suppress Tangible Evidence. On appeal, he argues that the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress the firearm because the officer who stopped and frisked him (and found the firearm on appellant) did not have reasonable articulable suspicion that he was armed. We affirm.
