Description
We have for review Drew v. State,736 So. 2d 1188 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999), based on certified direct conflict with the decision in State v. Hankins, 376 So. 2d 285 (Fla. 5th DCA 1979). We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const. At issue in this case is whether the act of removing hubcaps or tires from a vehicle in and of itself constitutes a burglary. The Second District in Drew (tires) and State v. Word, 711 So. 2d 1240 (Fla. 2d DCA 1998) (tires) held that there was a burglary while the Fifth District in Hankins (hubcaps) held there was not. Based on the purpose and history of the offense of burglary at common law and our interpretation of the burglary statute, we hold that the sole act of removal of hubcaps or tires from a motor vehicle, while clearly constituting an act of criminal larceny, does not constitute a burglary.
