OPINION OF THE COURT
COWEN, Circuit Judge.
A jury convicted defendant Steven Sallins on one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) (1988). Sallins claims that the district court erred by admitting hearsay evidence of a police radio dispatch and a police computer record detailing the contents of a call to 911. Because we agree.that the contents of the. police radio dispatch and the police computer record were inadmissible hearsay, we will reverse Sallins’ conviction and remand for a new trial.
