Opinion

No. 87-979.

March 15, 1988.

An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County; Seymour Gelber, Judge.

Bennett H. Brummer, Public Defender, and Bonnie Freeman, Sp. Asst. Public Defender, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Richard L. Kaplan, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.

Before HUBBART, BASKIN and FERGUSON, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

A careful review of the record fails to demonstrate that the state proved the identity of the appellant as the perpetrator of the crime; we therefore reverse the adjudication and order D.H. discharged. See Z.P. v. State, 440 So.2d 601 (Fla.3d DCA 1983); W.J. v. State, 406 So.2d 60 (Fla. 3d DCA 1981); Ponsell v. State, 393 So.2d 635 (Fla. 4th DCA 1981).

Reversed.
