OPINION
2Opinion of the Court · PricePrice, J.
in which KELLER, P.J., and MEYERS, KEASLER, HERVEY, HOLCOMB and COCHRAN joined.
We granted review in this case to examine whether the Thirteenth Court of *683Appeals erred in deciding that a police officer’s warrantless intrusion into the appellant’s home was allowable under the theory of exigent circumstances and probable cause. We conclude the court of appeals did err in its analysis. However, we affirm the judgment of the court of appeals on grounds that the police entry and search was justified by the appellant’s consent.
