Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Reversed and remanded for a new trial.

We agree that the trial court erred in admitting testimony by a police officer that appellant had stated to him more than two (2) years before the incident in question that he had once possessed a shotgun belonging to his grandfather. There was no showing that this evidence was relevant to the charge being tried. See Huhn v. State, 511 So.2d 583 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987).
