1Opinion of the Court

Beasley, Chief Judge.

A jury convicted Speagle of two counts of burglary. OCGA § 16-7-1.

1. Speagle enumerates as error the trial court’s denial of his motion to suppress evidence of the fruits of a warrantless search. The following principles apply:

“ ‘The trial court’s decision on questions of fact and credibility at a suppression hearing must be accepted unless clearly erroneous. Where there is evidence to support the decision of a trial judge on motion to suppress evidence, that decision will not be disturbed on appeal.’ [Cit.]” Leonard v. State, 213 Ga. App. 503, 504 (445 SE2d 330) (1994).
