1Opinion of the Court

Carley, Judge.

After a jury trial, appellant was found guilty of armed robbery. He appeals from the judgment of conviction and sentence entered by the trial court on the jury’s guilty verdicts.

1. The admission into evidence of certain glass fragments found at the scene of the crime and blood samples taken therefrom is enumerated as error. The contention is that the State failed to establish a chain of custody for this evidence.

“Because appellant made no objection at trial to the introduction of the [evidence] on this basis, he waived any objection. [Cits.]” Welch v. State, 257 Ga. 197, 198 (3)…
