OPINION
ROTH, Judge:
T1 Defendant Luis Cristobal appeals the trial court's denial of his motion for a directed verdict, claiming that there was insufficient evidence to support enhancement of his criminal mischief conviction to a second degree felony for having "acted in concert with two or more persons." See Utah Code Aun. § T6-3-203.1(1), (8)(c), (4)(g) (Supp.2010) 1 Because we conclude that there was insufficient evidence from which the jury could conclude beyond a reasonable doubt that Cristobal was aided or encouraged by two or more persons, we vacate the enhancement.
