OPINION

DARDEN, Senior Judge.

STATEMENT OF THE CASE

Anthony P. Sharp, Jr., appeals from his conviction of and sentence for felony murder, 1 contending that there was insufficient evidence to support his conviction, that the felony murder statute was improperly applied in this situation, and that his sentence is inappropriate in light of the nature of the offense and the character of the offender. Consistent with our standard of review, we affirm Sharp’s conviction. However, we reverse the trial court’s sentencing decision and remand with instructions to modify Sharp’s sentence.
