ORDER

2Per curiam

Mr. Curtis A. Johnson Jr. appeals his convictions for first-degree assault, section 565.050, and armed criminal action, 571.015, after a jury trial. He contends the trial court abused its discretion in refusing to declare a mistrial after the State discussed a witness’s testimony in its opening statement, but the witness refused to testify at trial.

For reasons stated in the memorandum provided to the parties, we affirm. Rule 30.25(b).
