PER CURIAM.
The defendant was convicted of three counts of indecent behavior with juveniles, in violation of LSA-R.S. 14:81, and was sentenced to consecutive sentences of four years, five years, and six years. The defendant's actions constituted a common scheme or plan for which imposition of a concurrent sentence is appropriate. La.C.Cr.P. art. 883. The trial court abused its discretion in ordering consecutive sentences and this Court now orders the sentences be served concurrently.
