RILEY, Judge.

STATEMENT OF THE CASE

DefendanL-Appellant Robert Whitfield (‘Whitfield”) appeals following his conviction of robbery with a deadly weapon, a Class B felony. 1

We affirm.

ISSUES

Two issues are presented for our review which we restate as:

1. Whether the trial court erred in denying Whitfield’s motion to suppress where Whitfield contends he was promised leniency in exchange for his taped confession.

2. Whether the evidence is sufficient to support Whitfield’s conviction of robbery with a deadly weapon where the weapon used was a pellet gun with a hollowed barrel.
