STATE of Missouri, Respondent, v. Robert Lee WATSON, Appellant.
ORDER
Following a jury trial in the Circuit Court of Buchanan County, Robert Watson (“Watson”) was convicted of one count of the class E felony of resisting a lawful stop; one count of the class E felony of leaving the scene of an accident; and one count of the class A misdemeanor of second degree endangering the welfare of a child. Watson raises two points on appeal. In his first point, he contends that the trial court erred in admitting evidence that law enforcement officers were executing a search warrant on his residence. In his second point, Watson argues that there was insufficient evidence to establish that he caused physical injury to another person as required to sustain his conviction for leaving the scene of an accident under section 577.060. We affirm. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, a memorandum explaining the reasons for our decision has been provided to the parties. Rule 30.25(b).
