OPINION

ROBERTSON, Judge.

Donald Wilson appeals his convictions, after a jury trial, of Criminal Recklessness While Armed With a Deadly Weapon, and Pointing a Firearm at Another Person, both class D felonies. Wilson raises two issues, both of which require reversal. 1 We address the following restated issue only:
